Whats the quickest and/or best way to 60mph with the M6?
The quickest way is to floor the accelerator and bang those gears 1-6 with quick foot, hand coordination without spinning the tires.fullarmor2 said:Whats the quickest and/or best way to 60mph with the M6?
that was covered as well, trac was off for both peak 0-60 times. With the auto, it was advised to flash the verter, rather than stall, bring it up to where the tires break loose, then keep the wheel spin under a certain level to keep the most traction.GOATGIRL said:What about with an A4? Would it be best to leave the trac on or off in that case?
Awsome time and 60 ft for stock GTO!phantomblackgto said:You will be at 60 in 2nd gear before the redline. The hardest thing is figuring out the optimum revs for best traction.
I always try to wait for right at redline before shifting. I'm running completely stock, 3300 miles. Here's my best times:
60 ft = 1.90
1/4 mile = 13.12 @ 107.9
I don't know specifically a best 0-60 mph time as it would be pretty subjective trying to watch the speedo, a stopwatch and drive at the same time.
Gears 1-6? He said 60, not 160 ;-)GTO judge said:The quickest way is to floor the accelerator and bang those gears 1-6 with quick foot, hand coordination without spinning the tires.
I have made about 20 runs now. My best time was the last time we were at the track. My first run was made at about 350 miles on the car. Although I shouldn't admit it, I believe it was 15 something at a little over 90 mph (I missed 3rd and went straight to 5th). I got beat by a Dodge Dakota. You talk about getting laughed out of the pits!QwkRed05GTO said:Awsome time and 60 ft for stock GTO!
Thanks, I am going to try this. I have noticed quite a bit of wheel spin shifting to 2nd at redline. I really haven't tried 0-60 times, but that should also help in the 1/4.jacobyb said:Every rag that has tested the GTO for 0-60 times has stated that they have recieved their best results by short-shifting 1st gear between 5500 and 6000 rpm's. Waiting until redline was costing them .3 seconds.
