I made 3 runs in my Boxster S. The first run was a soft launch and full throttle up through 3rd at about 95mph. 60 @ 5.0s | 1/4 @ 23s - that seemed pretty weird. Tried a second time with a harder launch, and ran it up to 4th at about 115mph. 60 @ 5.4s | 1/4 @ 27s - slower? Tried a third time, this time with a much harder launch, ran it up to 5th @135mph 60 @ 7.1s | 1/4 @31s - NFW! I then deleted the app.

It was -11°C (12°F) and I did this one and only pass in 2WD. It would have had better traction in 4WD and there was a bit of wheel spin. This was at 1093m elevation. A much faster time at sea level with no wheel spin is possible. The truck weighs 2930 kgs with me in it (I weighed it 5 mins before).
