Harry and smoke can you confirm for me with these 3 examples. Which of the 3 examples best fits your method of testing? I hope its Example 1.

Thanks

Example 1

This is how i ran the Subaru. Current Official Unofficial time is 9:270.

Also Harry I have some other cars with 400M times but i haven't done the 0-60 or 0-100 tests on mine only the full 400M. But i can have damn good go at it if you like. 0-60 and 0-100 is such a tedious pain for me seems like hours to get it paused bang on at 60 MPH or 100 MPH.

Just so you know with Example 3 i made a 9:234 run which makes sense based on where the car is placed at the Start and when the timer starts. But i didn't get a picture of this unfortunately. It was as close to the Finish line as i could get it.

After noticing when you then take a photo sometimes the picture doesn't match where the car really is i find this strange. But at least i line the G Meter up behind the start line and bang on the front edge of the start line.

So all you can do is take whatever picture it gives you when you pause it. If the wheels were touching the middle black line of the finish line the cars wheels would seem to be just on or after the last part of the yellow. I reckon my evidence is good enough and close enough as you can get with this method of testing.

If you want i can post a video showing the run and how its lined up too.

I believe it is example 2 Wraith also nice time.
 
The regular C7 runs close to the M4 yeah, the anniversary one is faster, 935 hp.

Also, @ArticTrust, I retuned my R8 if you wanted to run mine again.

Sorry for the late response Wraith. Kinda given up on these forums. They've become nothing more than a place to troll.
Seems even premium members can't resist.

At any rate, I quizzed Iwin on this previously.... For two reasons.

1. Purely as a point of reference for others wishing to attempt these trials.
2. To see if there was any viability in it.


IMO, Timing a run is futile at SSRX.
In fact, chasing your ghost is as well, except to extract top end pull from a tune.

If you want my reasoning I'll happily discuss via PM, as I'm not trying to derail this thread.
But in response to your question, I believe Iwin was using his front bumper view and aligning the bottom edge of his tv with the far side of the start finish line.



On a side note, the Ferrari 599 is also a good match for the M4.
The Ferrari launches harder, but gets pulled up top.
