Torque gets you going power keeps you going.

Here's torque and boost graphs for my old GC8. Was no slouch off the line either.

GTX35R full boost by just under 4krpm on the road.
565 ft/lbs (766Nm) 601hp

Bang on Daz

We can't compare those 766nms here as its on a mainline/DDynamics roller dyno, torque is read differently to hub dynos

Drag times backed it up though mate

Surely did, that GC of yours mate, all I've read about it is porn!

Yeah just the rollers and hubs numbers are totally different, can't make direct numerical comparisons

Ok so a bit of an update... got AD08Rs fitted and also my wheel alignment fixed by the pros at Wheel's World, thanks to Bill and Dean for fixing up what a said professional left me with, comparing the values really showed who actually knows what they're doing.

Went to Barbs for the first time since the build and clocked a 68.01 on the long track, timed using RaceChrono. Need a NoLimits for more accurate timing and it definitely feels like its got few more seconds in it with more practice and a run where I get all of my best lines in the same lap.

Heading to WAW this arvo to put a time in.
Anyone know how the ad08rs are for launching at the strip? Those who have tried, is it ok to do so or is the surface too grippy and it shouldnt be done?

5K and let it rip bro.

You may even have to let some air out to get decent launching grip, mine were spinning all the way through first last time I was there.

I used my RaceCrono at a no limits timing and the difference was about 0.12 seconds. So not much really.

1st run is in.... Did a 12.4 and I held 4th at redline, experimented not switching to 5th, next run should be faster, term speed was 176km/hr.
p.s: yup Nick spun the 08s easy as
