One of the good things about instrumenting the car at the drag strip is what can be learned from studying the data.
Here, in .wav format, is a sound file of my stock 2006 Z06 being launched and run through the gears to 135 before lifting. Run was made at MIR on November 4th, the 10.85 pass.
Play Ranger.LS7.Rhapsody.wav
Analysis of the sound file permits precise timing of the shifts and elapsed time from start of the launch. On this pass at MIR, the car accelerated from
0 to 60 (the 1-2 shift) in 3.09 seconds.
0 to 120 (the 3-4 shift) in 8.78 seconds.
Keep in mind that the car was on drag radials on a prepared surface
So crank up the volume and enjoy the LS7 Rhapsody, a Z06 at full song.
Edit: Sorry for the delay. Putstuff (still in beta) doesn't work. Never would have imagined that finding a site to host an audio file for download would be such a pain. It's up on Putfile, now. Just play no download.
