There's a 12 inch rollout.
So, according to me, it's not possible to add 0.2 s for every test.
Moreover, the speedometer and the distance are differently affected.
0,2 for speedometer it's not 0,2 sec for the distance.
For absurd, if a car can make 0-400 in 12 sec and 0-200 km/h in 12 sec, with a 10 sec rollout it'd reach 200 in 2 seconds, but not 0-400 m in 2 seconds, because it'd start for the quarter mile after 10 second, starting from the speed reached in this time. So 10 seconds cut this time from the speedometer, but not from the distance. It'd start from an high speed, but it'd have to cover all 400 m. It would cover the distance in a very shorter time, but not in 2 seconds. Sorry for my english, i hope you can understand.

If 1-ft-rollout is 0,2 s we have to cut it out from all acceleration times, speed and distances as well. Vbox works this way as well. Rollout times are approx. 5 or 6 mph to 60 mph or 5 or 6 mph to the quarter mile, no differences.

Dede, i ment this. If a car have 1 ft rollout, we can not assume this cut always 0.2 sec from the time. If it was so, rollout would be meaningless. Rollout reason is to avoid that initial trouble's start compromise to much the acceleration. In an old test Minardi 185 T was tested with a 50 cm rollout. In this case it meant more than 1 second to add. 0-100 1,8 seconds means above 3 seconds. Less traction in the start, more the rollout help the car. Moreover, if you assume this, 0-100 is not more 0-100, but......the speed reached in 1 ft to 100. The distance is 0-400 but not from 0 km/h, but from the speed reached in 1 ft. In an absurd 100 mt rollout the car would have to reach not 300 meters, but 400 meters, starting from the speed reached in 100 meters. So it's not possible to cut the time from the first 100 meter, as you can do with the speed. Nowaday it's possible rollout metod is differente. I don't know.

Obviously, with a 12 inch (30 cm) rollout the difference in speed and meter is meaningless, but i keep beening not sure about adding Always 0.2 seconds.

 

[DeDe]

From numerous Road&Track datapanels I got a conclusion that most RWD supercars need 0,2-0,3 sec for the first 30 centimetres, while AWD cars need mostly 0,2 sec. My 92-hp FWD Suzuki usually has a 1-ft-rollout time of 0,4 s.

 

[Switar]

Ok, now i understand better. Thanks. I think motortend data pannel about McLaren p 1 and porsche 918 it's a clear evidence about rollout effect. Not only the Porsche loses it's traction superior, but the distance time is not coerent with speed times. With the difference we read it's impossible from McLaren having 0.2 seconds less than porsche in 400 meters. But it's only what i think.

I'll tell you, red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing.

 

[Switar]

Such an erudite quotation. But i'll take it as an admonition. meanwhile i start waiting for a black unit to test.

White is not right for LaFerrari...

How about this white

I think I've mentioned it before regarding white Ferrari's, they'd be absolutely perfect with the tricolore stripes down the center of the car.

That white Lafa looks good, but just not as dramatic as other colors as it somewhat washes out the fantastic curves of the design.

From all the pics I've seen thus far, I've yet to see a LaFer in color that turned me off. Even JayKay's "Kermit" green looks great and adds just the right amount of whimsy.

Probably owned by the same person. Otherwise why let somebody hit you without saying a word?

The Ferrari goes into e-mode when reversing?

What a f#cking useless driver, he had a boulevard in front of him already.

Bugatti rim job... nasty!

I can't believe I forgot to post this. There was a article that I saw where it mentioned laferrari's ev range and I didn't want to copy the whole article:

Technically, LaFerrari can travel 9 to 14 miles in pure electric mode, but Ferrari has limited the top speed in full battery mode to 3 mph to discourage drivers from trying to use the supercar as a zero-emission vehicle.

"You can exit the garage in pure battery mode, but that's it. This car is designed for extreme performances," Fedeli said.

LaFerrari has slashed carbon dioxide emissions to 330 grams per kilometer, down from the Enzo's CO2 output of 545 g/km and below the 350 g/km of the F12 Berlinetta. The CO2 decrease comes mainly from optimizing LaFerrari's internal combustion engine, Fedeli said.

When driving, the HY-KERS system disconnects only when the car reaches its full speed of about 217 mph. At this point, all 800 hp generated by the V-12 goes straight toward powering the wheels.

Fedeli said that few LaFerrari buyers will notice this because even on a Formula One race track such as Monza, the supercar reaches "only" 170 to 180 mph at the end of the main straightaway.

And here goes some info on a true hybrid laferrari's co2: the hybrid technology used, known as HY-KERS, represents the perfect combination of maximum performance and lower emissions. LaFerrari in fact emits just 330 g/km of CO2 but without resorting to electric-only drive which would not fit the mission of this model.

The HY-KERS system is, however, designed so that in future applications a car can be driven using exclusively electric power for a few kilometres and, during development testing, a full-electric version of LaFerrari achieved just 220 g/km of C02 emissions on the combined cycle..
