Where to go to measure stopping distance??
 

In spring when the snow melts :( , I would like to dial in my brakes. What have you guys done for this? Is there anywhere that has equipment for this?? I would like to do adjustments and even possibly swap pads to try to egt the fastest stopping distance possible. Speeds from 60-0 and 100-0.

How about a G-tech meter and an empty parking lot?

You won't really need any special tools to adjust your front/rear bias, just keep adjusting until the fronts lock just slightly before the rears.

Boy, it has been abbout 6 years since I used my G-TECH. I will have toi figure out how it works once again. Think that will be accurate? How do the magazines do it??

magazines used to test.....now they test with it :rofl: :rofl:

Someplace perfectly safe like public highways or grammar school parking lots? :thumbsup:

Lucky for me I have a industrial park only a mile away I have a nice 1/2 mile stretch of road in there with field to easily get from 60-0 and 100-0. I will have to make a goal! 0-100 and back to 0 in 10 seconds should be a reasonable goal?? Dang snow!!

I don't think you'll do a 10 sec 0-100-0, just based on this:

"Driven by Ultima Director, Richard Marlow, the British built and designed Ultima GTR road car set a new world record time of a staggering 9.4 secs for the 0-100mph-0 sprint. The GTR scorched from 0-60mph in 2.6 secs, 0-100mph in 5.3 secs and braked to zero from 100mph in a mind blowing 3.6 secs, which are all in themselves road car world record times."

Maybe 11 seconds then. :D

I don't know how realistic it is but if Schwartz can make a big ass cadilllac out perform a lambo in pretty much every respect except gas mileage, It wouldnt surprise me if your twin turbo car beats a normal asperation ultima in a strait away. I know from previous videos your car is stinken fast! I dought it can stop as fast, but you might have it on exceleration.

Right now the car should do about 0-100 in 5-6 seconds or so. That would leave me 4-5 seconds to stop. I can't wait til spring to try it out!! :D
