A drag race will tell you nothing about driveability - just straight line acceleration. Not really what the D3 is about...! DISCO3 Goodies in the Shop: Stickers, Polo Shirts, Fleeces and More! | D3 Parts For Sale

well yes and no martin . Driveability aside some of us here approched the "tune" with a view
to increasing the performace of the D3 , that is to say reducung the 0-60 time
In my case ruducing the "Lag" before power came in .
I do appreciate seeing two D3's in a drag would be a bit strange "Not really what the D3 is about...!"
as you say . But none the less I would like to see a standard and tuned (various tunes) D3 go head to head in this
way.
But thats just me  One Wife.. Kill it ..

We have a Racelogic P-Box which can measure various times (0-60, 30-70 etc). It would be interesting to do some testing at some point.

Hi,
This is just what I was looking for, not having to go back to dealer/tuning company and being able to choose which program you want loading, power or economy sounds great. Bit unfortunate you haven't got an economy program yet. Let me know when you do and I'll definitely take a look. Soon I hope.
Trev.
