So I went to the drags tonight.
2nd time ever in my life that I have raced at a track.

The VR4 behaved itself nicely this time
1st run was 12.877 @ 109.84 with a 1.922 60ft
2nd run was 12.758 @ 110.54 with a 1.893 60ft

On the first run I logged it using my Ipod touch and a little App for it called Dynolicious.I was very surprised as to how accurate the Ipod was /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

To give you an idea as to how accurate the Ipod was here is the comparison of the 2 on the same run.
Real time- 12.877 @ 109.84 with a 1.922 60ft
Ipod time- 12.890 @ 110.40 with a 2.1 60ft
That is damned close in my book!

I've also never dynoed the car but the Ipod had it listed at around 330hp atw
It would be pretty interesting to see how accurate it is when I finally get to a dyno.

Sweet. I have the pocketdyno + application on my Iphone, it works the same was as dynolicous. Im pumped to hear it's pretty close and glad to hear you had a good night at the track. It's addicting for sure!

Yeah I have been reading about dynolicious and its pretty much persuaded me to step away from my zune and get an ipod touch or consider an Iphone..It looks to be a pretty cool app, and seems to work well.

And thats pretty dang close on times. I would take that any day..

..Also, your times look to be pretty decent. Get that launch dialed in and see what it does.

Did you calibrate it first and put in the total vehicle weight including you?
