I think our 4-speed auto's are a relatively wiiiiiiiiiiide spread of gear ratios. Are the same ratios between i6 and v8?

My Gtech 0-100 is ~6.2 and my best 400m time (WSID) is 14.544.

Using the 0-60mph calculator on that 14.544s run gave me a time of 5.8x seconds.

Don't forget we are not robots, most of the differences (we are talking tenths here), will be due to the driver shifting earlier/later, getting the throttle on different, and so on...

Then there is the EEC which is pulling timing at different rates to save the transmission, or in response to different air temps/oil temps.

Let me know when you are ready to take it to the track Stav, I'll come out with you and we can put all this speculation to rest ;)

I don't believe GTechs are accurate enough over 400m.

Ill have to scam one day by talking to the missus...but if I can I will ...and it will be fun.
