Tech / General EngineIs your car making a strange sound or won't start? Thinking of adding power with a new combination? Need other technical information or engine specific advice? Don't see another board for your problem? Post it here!
You're welcome. It's a really cool piece. The roll racers use it to log 60-130 times and a lot of people have ran them in their cars at the drag strip. They are surprisingly accurate.

Can you get and idea of Horsepower/Torque from them?
Torque Pro will use your phone's accelerometer to measure ... acceleration. You tell it what your car weighs. From there, it will calculate the power numbers reasonably accurately. Costs about $5.
What I like is, you can practice your launch only and it will still log your 1/4 mile as you continue on at slow speed. So you don't have to worry about law enforcement or pushing the engine all the time. Even if 1/4 mile is very slow on purpose, I still get the 60 foot.
Here's an example of full on 1/4 mile on street. They are from different passes. One is 0-60, other one is 1/4 mile
I have not used it simultaneously at the track but it is very close to what I do at track. I vary +/- 0.3s and +/- 1.5mph at track anyway depending on air and launch. Next summer I plan on using it at the track and maybe post results.
