Default RCF 1/4 Mile Runs

I'll be running the car this weekend in Palm Beach FL, hope to get in a few good passes before the mods start coming in. Just wanted to know if anyone has already ran the 1/4, if so, share your times.

If anyone wants to meet up at the track would be great too!

UPDATED 8/20/15



Best run out of 4

Went back yesterday with some friends, but way too many cars, 2 passes only. Slips below:

I will definitely be getting video of the runs, but may not head to the track this weekend as the weather forecast is less than ideal(80% chance of thunderstorms). Stay posted.

I'll be running at the Palm Beach International Raceway.

You should check out the event in Ocala ( yeah I know it's a ways away yet). I'll be up in Clayton in a 2 months for the event at Heavens Landing. Should do a mini meet for us guy's here in the Southeast.

Here's another thing you might be be interested in getting to do. I believe Doug here on the forums use to instruct some of the courses. Little pricey, but you'll have a frigging BLAST!

E Kanoo also regularly tracks his LFA Nurburgring Edition. From what I read about someone who follows his page, he puts down seriously fast lap times in his LFA

Like any AT car I've driven so far, I am pretty sure you have to power brake this car to get a good 0-60 or 1/4 mi. Its pretty clear that the car in the video is a power-brake launch. I tried full throttle from dead stop and barely got a tire squeal (expert mode TC off). Then I noticed if I let it roll a little bit and then nail the throttle I get a nice launch but that kills the elapsed time so I'm still trying to figure it out.

That is AWESOME! It's Amazing What Unlimited Money can DO! C, that sounds like Fun & i Appreciate it Buddy but if i have to Drive longer that 4-5 hrs. i FLY (i've never been one of those guys that likes to drive & look at the scenery & Orlando is 12 hrs. driving one way). I like to get where i'm going as Soon as Possible!
