Congrats. Let us know what it runs at the drag strip. I'd love to see the trap speed. Dont forget to log the run for Rob. Thats invaluable data right there.

Hey, just bought carbon rotors, they are twice lighter stock ones.. -25kg of rotating mass

In atmo, how do You think, shall they make 60-130 better? (On photo not mine, this is from bmw m8, mine are on the way)

BTW,no worries, i washed my hands after BMW 😭🤣

your car is very cool. How much did the sound deadening quiet down the car? I think you should keep it and find other ways to reduce weight. If it's a lot quieter it might be worth keeping it.

Please forgive my ignorant question, but I have never been to Russia, and may not ever be able to go there given the political situation between our two countries (I am in USA). When I lived in Germany in the military, the closest I have ever been, I could not even travel to Berlin because of my job in the military and security clearance (Cold War years). So here is my question:

Do they have drag strips around Moscow?


UPDATE - Well, Google tells me that they do have drag racing in Moscow and even have older American muscle cars running on the drag strip. Neat.

Either display the TQ/HP imperial, or display both metric. But display both the same... because obviously the chart looks screwy

Thank You, sir, but I want to keep it maximum in stock, only bolt-on details

We have second dark horse in Russia and my friend says it has bad noise reduction , so my 60kg of it are really working

So I did weight reduction from
1. Carbon driveshaft
2. Forged wheels
3. Will install carbon ceramic rotors
4. Will install front skinnies from my Mach1

On the track
1. Delete passenger seat
2. Delete rear seats
3. Install track battery 🔋 20Ah for 4.5kg instead 16kg stock one
4. Maybe will delete subwoofer 🔊 for race

And will try to do as close as possible to 10.999999 on quarter)

It shows
Torque in nm (not lbft)
Power in whp (everywhere same)

Exactly

Show both imperial or metric
Done, Sir,

But manually converted NM to LB FT and draw new line, as dyno don’t have lb ft possibility

Made points based on this website
https://www.unitconverters.net/energy/nm-to-ft-lb.htm

I am not smart in this, but now is it proper or still have questions?

I think if we have carbon ceramic rotors on dyno (-10kg) at rear wheels, we could get 545-550whp

Wow. Did you actually weigh this car? That is startlingly heavy. I was thinking it ought to come in just under 4,000 lbs, and that this was quite heavy enough (big, fat pig heavy). Is it really more than 400 lbs more?
