General Dynolicious results

[bulldog5046]

i've been having a play with the dynolicious app for the iPhone, i only managed to get 2 runs

the first, i ran out of road and had to brake before i managed the full 1/4 mile.

Graph:

Stats:

0-10mph = 5.20sec
0-20mph = 6.24sec
0-30mph = 7.35sec
0-40mph = 8.89sec
0-50mph = 10.38sec
0-60mph = 12.14sec
0-70mph = 14.98sec
0-80mph = 17.61sec

60' 6.93 sec @ 25.3mph
330' 11.24 sec @ 53.1mph
1/8 mi 14.76 sec @ 68.8mph
1000' 17.82 sec @ 80.9mph
1/4 mi 20.37 sec @ 90.7mph

max speed 89.8mph
max acceleration 0.46 G's
peak horsepower 140 HP (at the wheels)



and the second run, which is obviously completely inaccurate but still amusing:

1/4 mi 13.30 sec @ 124.2mph

Peak horsepower 384 HP

the first run looks good though, need to subtract almost 5 seconds from all the times though as the software hasnt allowed for reaction time disappointingly

Hows that supposed to work then?

Where does it get the readings from

 

[bulldog5046]

accelerometer built into the iphone

Cheers dave

So Ryan it's about as truthful as a politician?

i've got this working properly now i have a windscreen mount

0-60 in 6.26 Seconds

1/4mi in 14.92 @ 103.0 MPH

not bad for a hearse but i still think i can shave some time off the 0-60 and 1/4mi as my launches have been terrible so far.

lol amusing . I've put a clutch in my coupe from a Alfa 3.2 GTA . Hope it lasts a bit longer than the standard coupe one.

i'm currently on a standard Valeo clutch i fitted when i built the car, about 8,000miles on it now and its been fien so far but i am starting to get a bit worried, escpecially with such harsh launches.

i think i might skip the GTA clutch and go straight to a paddle once this one dies.

Aye they get a lot of welly in a 20VT from the shear neck ripping torque!.

So do you reckon thats pretty accurate except for the fact it relys on human intervention?.

there is next to no human intervention

i've had to set the trigger point to 0.16 G's as it was starting the run while i was revving the engine previously, now it ig starting when i bring the clutch up as it should.

there are some people who posted a video on youtube comparing it to a G-tech device and a 1/4mi drag strip, Dynolicious compared much better and was accurate to a coupe of tenths of a second

my previous runs were pretty consistantly around the 6.7 Seconds to 60 but with poor starts, i just got it better on this run, still room for improvement though IMO.

when i get a chance i will get the car to Santa Pod and do some comparisons for myself.

Cool!

Still couldn't bare owning an iPhone. I wonder if you could get it on a iPod?.

yeah it can be used on the iPod Touch.

I thought you were quite tech savvy Chris, supprised you dont already have one.

its no where near as bad as a Mac

Nah I've got a HTC Touch Diamond (Windows Mobile 6.1) as a Phone mainly because its got proper Microshaft Exchange support and a Sony Walkman 8gb but I may be persuaded into iPod touch if I can find some good apps lol.

Someone should write one for the Touch Diamond as its got an accelerometer too + tilt sensor etc etc.

Not one to surcome to Apple Branding .
