It would great if we could eventually get all the figures into a database to allow tab searching and ordering.

The OP list would benefit from being sorted by 1mile or 1/4mile time.

Start using real measurements.

Honestly? YES
Why are there doubles? The NSX, McLaren MP4-12C and lots of others..Aren't you just going to put the best time for each? Seems wasteful.

some how I missed those, I'm going through them all and deleting the slower times..

Also, I will try and get this into a Google Docs data base soon so you can go by tabs.

-------- Okay also, Do you want three separate Databases (stock, fully tuned, race)?

Three seperate sheets in google docs file. 👍
 
How come I've not seen any stopping distances?
Can't you do that on the test track?
 
Google Docs Data base has been started for fully tuned cars, not all cars have been added in yet, and some cars have been added that aren't mentioned at all, We may Delete the OP list to make it easier to keep track of
 
Going through Premiums, currently partway through Chevy will post relevant results later :)

The GTR destroyed every record i had until the McMerc came along :lol: and then the Veyron came along :guilty:

EDIT: I just noticed that you get a top 100 ranking for each test.... Holy 🤬 that is epic 👍

You missed my times mate 👍
 
I've been slowly updating mine and now have around 130 references, if you wanna compare and update >:0)
 
I have a couple of records that beat your records for the Skylines. I actually got the R35 down to 2.113 on a 0-60 time. Does it make sense that it pulled a ridiculous 1.70 G?

EDIT:

Fully Tuned:

Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 TC: Max G: 1.54, 0-60: 2.296, 0-100: 4.548, 1/4 Mile: 9.570, 1 Mile: 24.092
Nissan Skyline GT-R R33 TC: Max G: 1.49, 0-60: 2.443, 0-100: 4.949, 1/4 Mile: 9.925, 1 Mile: 24.862
Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 TC: Max G: 1.52, 0-60: 2.415, 0-100: 4.949, 1/4 Mile: 9.911, 1 Mile: 25.147 (killed due to transmission being not set properly for entire mile.)

Thanks Blitz, I hve totally forgotten about this thread :lol:

I feel like I had wrecked the OP with the Google Docs part of it.. people asked for it but I am horrible with Google Docs. If some one could take care of the other 2 google docs, life would be great :p ... Because I am not good with the programm.

Hopefully we can get this thread back full steam again 👍
 
I'm up to 225 records on my personal test list so far, feel free to drop in and grab away, although I know a lot of them can be (or have already) beaten.

haha HOLY man, that's a lot of additions :p
This thread kind of died off when I messed up the docs thing :lol:
 
great thread. In a former life I worked with a speedshop and we'd compete in drag meets around the state in various classes (all motor, turbo, open class, etc)

One poster mentioned launching at redline on AWDs and its very true. This also applies to FR and FF cars as well. You'd either have drivetrain issues or running the risk of motor troubles (frying a piston, lose a cylinder, etc).

It goes without saying but in real life, one thing that we saw was that with highly boosted cars, we'd sometimes get better numbers from a directional racing tire as oppose to a pure drag slick. This was because the slick would grip too much at launch and slightly bog down the rpms - turbos can sometimes adversely effect initial torque. On an all motor car you may not have this issue as the power the car generates is available immediately as oppose to having to build up boost. There are ways to combat this initial launch problem with additional parts and such but obviously not something you can use in GT5.

Long story short, try different tires and launch at different RPM levels (closer to the car's power band perhaps) - I haven't fooled around with the SSX testing much but it certainly isn't out of the question to get better times with less-gripping tires as it does happen in the real world.

That's my useless two cents for the day...

Edit to add:
To further comment on over-powering an AWD ...I've heard horror stories from 4WD mudd-riders that have seen Jeep Wranglers with a Chevy 350 drop-in snap driveshafts when the Jeep was stuck or bogged down in the mudd. Unfortunately when you have too much power going through the drivetrain and the wheels gripping too much, something has to give!
