First EVER IS350 Draggy Numbers
#34
I found the R&T performance metrics on the stock 07 IS350 which was the fastest published times from a major publication. It's interesting to compare the 0-60, 0-100, 40-60 and other figures between a stock 2IS350 and a tuned one.
Stock IS350 (Tuned IS350)
0-60: 4.9s (4.6s or 4.3s)
40-60: 2.2s (1.8s)
0-100: 12.7 (11.4s)
Stock IS350 (Tuned IS350)
0-60: 4.9s (4.6s or 4.3s)
40-60: 2.2s (1.8s)
0-100: 12.7 (11.4s)

Finally in the 12s!!!
The FBO+RR-Racing Tuned "Redspencer IS350" is finally part of the 12-second 1/4 mile club!!
(Times are GPS certified by Dragy)
1/4 mile time = 12.8 seconds @ 107.82mph
1/8 mile time = 8.3 seconds @ 85.93mph
0-60 mph = 4.3 seconds (w/ 1ft rollout); 4.5 sec without rollout
0-100 mph = 11.1 seconds, 40-60 mph = 1.9 seconds
The IS350 was very consistent at pulling multiple high 12s during all of my runs.
**Note: Ignore the Christmas Tree overlay. It's a visual effect from Dragy's video add-on that's still in beta and has no effect on the actual GPS recorded times.**

I'm kind of surprised that you have to be so easy off the line, even with the LSD. It might be worth looking into the rear suspension geometry to see if a slight relocation of a control arm mount gives us any more traction. I know I tried relocated control arms with my mustang and it made a difference.
I just noticed your posted 40-60 time is a bit slower than a good one for me. I don't think there is that much of a difference between our cars, I bet you have a tenth or two there too. I wouldn't be surprised if your car pulls off a 12.6 after getting everything figured out.

Tires, tire pressure, surface conditions, and yes - springs and damping rates all play a roll in bite and weight transfer during launch and typically speaking; drag cars are not road course cars and vice versa.... a pick your battle scenario!
Still impressive on all accounts!!!

I did my very first 1/4 mile run in my IS350 and used Dragy to get the times GPS certified. It's definitely a different experience from doing my usual cornering adventures but since I like accumulating data and stats on this car, I figure I'd see what this car can do in the 1/4 mile with my mods.
I only had the chance to do one attempt at a 1/4 mile and while there's still room for improvement, I think I did okay for being a drag noob. Rear tire PSI was at 34, brake torque was around 1200-1500 RPMs, and my upshift timing was fairly close to being at redline before each shift.
My biggest bummer of the single run I did was that my certified time was literally 13.00 seconds! If I was 0.01 seconds quicker, it would have officially made the IS350 a 12 second car. I'm hoping that with more experience and more attempts, I'll break into the 12s.
Here's an embedded video of my run:

Here's my recorded times for my 0-60, 1/8 mile, and 1/4 mile times:
0-60 (4.6sec / 4.39sec w 1ft rollout), 40-60 (1.88sec):
1/4 mile time (13.00sec) & 1/8 mile time (8.39sec), 0-100mph (11.48sec):
