Real acceleration data. Real cars. No hype.

We’re building a straightforward home for Dragy-verified 0–60 and ¼-mile results. Core values: Truth, Trust, Reliability, Transparency, Thoroughness.

Mission

Make performance information accessible for as many cars as we can test. Present it clearly, keep tests consistent, and separate data from opinion.

What’s coming (MVP)

Results Browser

  • Search/filter by make, model, year, body style.
  • Sort by 0–60 and ¼-mile times.
  • Filter by stock vs modified.

Test Pages

  • Make/model/year, mods, manufacturer HP/Torque.
  • Conditions (weather/surface) and a link to the run on YouTube.
