Zed Head Posted December 6, 2021 Share #169 Posted December 6, 2021 This looks like math-nerd bench racing. No need to drive the cars, the numbers tell us what will happen. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64415-z-proto-the-next-z-reveal/?page=15#findComment-632738 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Head Posted December 6, 2021 Share #171 Posted December 6, 2021 Based on what I saw I assumed it would be taken as a compliment. Oh well. The funny part is I'm not really interested in the Proto-Z or the 0-60 times, or the physics, or the math. I was just making an indirect comment about the hijacking. Thread-jacking is rude. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64415-z-proto-the-next-z-reveal/?page=15#findComment-632749 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 370Z does 0 - 60 in about 5.0 seconds with much less power. The new Z should be closer to 4.5 - 4.7 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64415-z-proto-the-next-z-reveal/?page=15#findComment-632753 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had originally specified the wheel velocity incorrectly (I think I low balled the RPMs to 5500). When I calculated better top wheel velocity using the redline of 6600 RPMs, the velocities changed but I failed to update the time spent in each gear. I have recomputed and here is what I got: 62% in 1st and 38% in 2nd… Average acceleration of 4.6868 Resulting in a 0-60 time of 4.01s This seems better. Thanks for bringing to my attention. Cheerz! Is your yellow Z the one with a Les Collins engine?
