Performance Testing

[gobiz]

We all know there's some big power cars in Msia.... even 800hp R33s:angel:, well it did make that power when it was owned by Tengku so Hypertune probably does have a case .

Anyway, after having huge amounts of money spent, and then dynoed to show big horsepower...where do the owners take the car to measure the performance?

There's the annual Sepang Drag Battle but it only happens rarely.

Anyone got a VBOX or DRIFTBOX to measure acceleration?
What about any other tracks to measure accel. or top speed?

Reason I'm asking is because in the UK, there's so many places where performance can be measured, eg.

Bruntingthorpe for Vmax/top speed
RAF Marham - 30-130mph events
Elvington - Ten of the best event, 1/4mile + top speed
Fighting Torque event - standing 1 mile event
Time attack - circuit
Tunergp - circuit

etc etc

Even in Japan, there's plenty.

What about our country? Is Batu Tiga still open? Are there frequent events to measure acceleration?

I think most, street performance is tested at teh-tarik stalls lor ...

Batu Tiga already long time being Banglo Lot~heee

I think for measured event, Malaysia have for 0-400 or 0-300m drag time test,even not that accurate.


For Circuit time attack,most is using manual stop watch coz Sepang circuit using kind of side beam unlike common Track magnetic thingy to auto timing(eg: HKS Time attack meter) your lap time.So only competition racer in official event will have an accurate lap time.

For Dyno battle, is quite bored coz always held at shop with limited space.I don`t see event being held outdoor yet maybe Malaysia don`t have suitable dyno machine. I don`t like to watch Dyno battle with Dyno pack~

well, there's plus highway boss
after midnight thats for sure. :D

Yes, just need a driftbox or Vbox...maybe I'll bring one when I come back.
But a bit risky tho., police but even worse, putting other people at risk.

Yes heard about that 300m drag...very silly if you ask me.
I reckon to properly test acceleration, need 1 mile at least, so basically need a 2 mile runway... or 3.2km. I wonder if there's any unused airplane runways in Msia? :hmmmm:

Yup, that's very common here too, over here it's called pub pisstalk

Over here at the East, the highway is the test track!!

 

[omaroDDin]

actually. in muar there are a few roads which are in good condition.
it's winding and empty most of the times.
only down side to it is that the roads have graveyards along it. bwahaha

 

[tony5050]

Well, SIC does provide time transponder for circuit timing optional for all private track session. Not for acceleration measure though

and free brain damage due to potholes and uneven roads!

what highway?? I didn't know there's one!??:hmmmm:

 

[reintel]

what highway?? I didn't know there's one!??:hmmmm:

I think he refer to 2 lane new road donggongon before it becum 1 1/2 lane! Sabah road catergorise as city street and trunk road.

 

[semperfi]

Ahhh.... that answers it.

 

[NISMO S-TUNE]

Ahhh.... that answers it.

Remember the road we used to play at in front of ah bah place?? That's one not bad mah, straight and smooth except you have to watched out for sudden surprise!!

That's not a road!! That's off-road!!

Oopssss....I thought GTR34 is 4WD and capable to doing off road?? Haaa haaa haaa haaa....:hmmmm:
