Since this is a motoring subsection, I was wondering if any of you have measured your 1/4 mile times?

If you have, state your car (stock or modded) and your time. I'll go first with a few we've tested with my brother gizmo device ...

These are with 2 people, reef altitude on a straight road

Toyota RunX RSI (stock) 1/4 - 16.776
Citi Life 1.6i (stock) 1/4 - 17.932
Touareg V10 (stock) 1/4 - 15.654
Corsa OPC (stock) 1/4 - 15.343
Audi S3 (not sure) 1/4 - 15.938 (old model)

Track I hope?
 
No ... but I really don't want to get into this argument?

I'm with you and every other person on this foru regarding the public road story. I'm also not making excuses, but the road is double lane, highly visible, not robots or cross roads. It's done when there are no cars around (hence only done those within 3 months) and purely a speed burst to 140km/h before stopping.

I'm happy to delete thread if you wish.

Let me know
 
neah, as long as these times are not done on the track, they cant be taken as accurate.
 
Er. Why not?

Each done on the same stretch, same passenger, similar times ...?
 
Those times seem pretty slow to me man...:confused:

Better to go to a track and do it there where it can be accurately measured and best of all, safe :)
 
Before it was purchased, alot of research was done with various motor clubs and enthusiasts. You can google the reviews and - as long as everything is under the same critera - it's very accurate. I know many don't believe motoring journalists and even less, CAR Magazine - but they use Gtech as well.

Check this : http://www.gtechpro.net/Accuracy/Accuracy_en.html for the accuracy results and this http://www.gtechpro.net/Products/rr_en.html for features. It's got a decent interface to test lap times etc and if accuracy does play a part - you're looking at less than 1%
