Brian took his car out to WSID for the first time tonight and had some fun. The goal was to test the car and give Brian some time to play with the 600+ rwkw and the Tein suspension setup.
His first run was pretty exciting... wheel spin off the mark, wheel spin in 2nd and 3rd and then the thing took off like a rocket. I'd love to see the video. The ET was pretty ordinary (12.5s) but the car managed 138MPH (91 MPH 1/2 track!!). The car weighed in at 1850 KGs on the scruteneering scales with Brian in it. By the common hp calculators the car has 836 HP at the wheels which converts to about 630 rwkw. 640 rwkw was measured on the hub dyno last night. I think that makes the Dynopack readings pretty accurate? His second run was not as good as the first, violent wheelspin had him struggling to move forward ... The third run was the money winner, short shifted into 2nd, stretched 3rd and once into fourth it rocketed off ... 11.9s@135 MPH 2.2 60' time. Fastest Manual Sedan XR6T/F6 in the country. Well done Brian and Tunehouse.
