Ok you guys tell me what you think!!! Slow or normal.

jpsuperman81 · 06-26-2009, 04:28 PM

Seems awfully slow I was just counting in my head but def doesnt seem right.

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:29 PM

Dude that is so odd I do not know what to say but something is def not right

Chocolate Apocalypse · 06-26-2009, 04:29 PM

Yeah, seems around 7 seconds...not right.

THE EVIL TW1N · 06-26-2009, 04:30 PM

Seemed slow to me, but it could also be from the lack of exhaust sound.

Looking at it, it was ~7 sec. to 60.

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:31 PM

I timed it its about 6-7 seconds def not the 4.8 it should be.

PQ · 06-26-2009, 04:31 PM

Damn, I did it 5 times and got an average of 7 seconds.

gotpball44 · 06-26-2009, 04:31 PM

yea 7 seconds for 0-60 thats why that v6 accord beat you. Even a v6 camaro is faster than that. You didn't even lose traction off the line at all.

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:32 PM

Is it just me or should the RPMs be shooting up faster then they are?

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:34 PM

Also why did it shift out of 1st @ 5.5k RPM shouldn't it take it closer to 6k like the 2nd to 3rd shift?

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:36 PM

BTW I would love to see more video's like this pretty awesome except for the fact that something is very wrong with yours and should be much faster.... I would be curious to see another L99 videos exactly like this that way we can watch each video and compare the differences.

DanD · 06-26-2009, 04:38 PM

I never looked to see what mine revved to in 1st.. but yours shifted at like 5500... and went past that in 2nd..

The car to me sounds correct

also... I know 100% also, that the speedo will be way farther behind than actual speed.

I am surprised no one near you has a laptop with any kind of scanning data software that they could help you with.

jdbaker82 · 06-26-2009, 04:39 PM

Scott I am no mechanic or no expert on cars but I would be curious if we would have the same exact results with you in D instead of M?.... You should try it maybe the M mode is not activating in yours for some reason and its the same as D?

I never drove the SS but when I rented the V6 from Avis it almost seems like that's how it the RPMs moved in D compared to M.

6.7 seconds on average after watching it 10 times. Not right at all.
