Hey guys! Any ideas of what some of you guys may be running on 0-60s or 1/8mile-1/4 mile runs? I know the Superlites aren't as much of a straight away car as they are around the turn but just to get an idea. I'm on gokart status with my SLC so haven't paid any visits to a track yet. Although i may without the body lol!! Just curious!! Happy Friday everyone!!
0-60 times in SLC
- Thread starter Mr_Venezuela
- Start date
0-60 one heartbeat ( I have a slow pulse), 1/8 mile 4 heartbeats, 1/4 mile 160 heartbeats ( I get excited when it gets serious)

I'm just wondering how it stacks against other exotics on a race from 0 and the acceleration compared to them! I know SLCs are built more for higher speeds and turns
I'm a junkie for acceleration.. (my model S performance is my crack right now but hoping to beat the 2.3 seconds w the SLC)
No chance. Traction and launch control make my P100d come off harder than my Superlite GT-R. But my GT-R can come by it after 1-2 blocks.
Will work to get video of a race between myself in the GT-R and my son in the Tesla.

In my DAXGT40 at Santa Pod. Motor is reasonably tame with 256hp
How much HP/TQ does your GT-R have roughly? Sticky tires? Just trying to get an idea! And yeah the teslas launch sooo hard.. let's not talk about Plaid one LOLOL
My old (2005) mercedes S600 V12 twin turbo gets to 60 in 4.4 seconds and has a top speed of 191 (with limiter removed) - with four seats, great AC, good sound system, sun shades, massage/heat/cool seats, power everything. Can an SLC beat 4.4 and 191?
I'm just baiting you on here.....

Mannnn I would say it sure can! On a 2300lb car with the right tires you can do a lot of damage! I plan on running hoosiers on the street lol!! No traction, no fun! As for top speed, a buddy of mine is an engineer and works with NASA, he's pretty good w aerodynamics and what not.. My concern with 200mph runs is not the powertrain, but how stable the car is lol!!! I'm a chicken when it comes to safety

I think that you should bring it back to earth..

You had better upgrade your hub bearings.. Safety first.
Valid point lol!!!You had better upgrade your hub bearings.. Safety first.
