1/4 mile Tuned Diesel
So I just started messing with my tune last week. A couple of days later, our 1/4 mile track reopened, so I figured this would be a good time to get a couple of runs in.
Caveat: I am not a professional driver. I don't know the torque curve, and launching a car with LRR tires is a *****. Once I experiment more, I should be able to do this in manual mode to get better times...
40hp tune, 16.5 @ 87mph
50hp tune, 16.4 @ 84mph

No issues here, my to be wife drives about 100 miles a day and at 17k miles no issues thus far. Had the car for a week and drove From Pittsburgh, PA to the coast of VA and the fuel mileage gauge was reading 53.Xmpg. I did hand calculate it and it was pretty close to that I just cant recall exactly what it was. My biggest complaint about the car is that there is no room in the back seat and no spare tire. Other than that its been a great car. Will have had it 1 year in September I believe.
