Not found a great deal in the "search" feature but I bought one of these performance tracking devices, honestly I was probably goaded into the purchase haha and a treat if I did well on a project last week.
I bought my car for its handling, stunning looks, turn of pace and practicality. Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. Standard internals and a Celtic Tuning ECU and gearbox box remap. Out and about when a like minded enthusiast recognises a safe, well sited and above all well known road I've engaged in "relative performance comparisons". I seem to be punching significantly out of my league, were they even trying? Well I would suggest they were based on the figures, does anyone use half throttle after muscling the car ahead out of the way only to have a four door saloon stuck to him until we reached about our personal limits, conditions, sighting, surprised road users (risk assessment has always be part of my careers) considered etc.
In short, my car is much faster than I realised. Dragy will not be a regular part of my driving enjoyment but speaking as a 50 year old ex airline pilot turned train driver, it's definitely got a place especially pre and post any future performance modifications.
My assumption is (the new) PHers' are anti such low brow tech but I'd be interested in opinions.
Starting a Dragy post without quoting any of the figures you’ve achieved is pretty much entirely pointless.I bought my car for its handling, stunning looks, turn of pace and practicality.

What sort of measurements were you doing?
100-200kmh is the most popular and a pretty good indication of a cars pace.

Sounds like
“Someone over took me in my mapped 4 door so I showed them by flying up behind them while they sat on the cruise control”
Also why would anyone give up being an airline pilot?
Redundancy, it's a big world plenty of things to try ask the circa 5000 unemployed pilots in the UK right now.“Someone over took me in my mapped 4 door so I showed them by flying up behind them while they sat on the cruise control”

Deleting the OP when someone's quoted you doesn't really work and make you look a bit 'flouncy'. Man up and defend your original post ! 
Not sure what the original post is trying to say apart from you're a bit surprised your remapped QF is a bit brisk ? If so then, yeah I'm sure it is ! (Nice car btw)
