1/8 Mile times

Post by TEAMpK »

Had some bad traction problems.

Here is my best run

R/T .343
60' 2.240
330' 6.370
1/8 9.778
MPH 72.37

I did have a run where I went 73.04 MPH. Not bad for a stock exhaust and street tires. I need to open her up and get some slicks and I should be in the low 9's pretty easy. I also am only running 10psi.

when I was N/A last year this was my result:
R/T .931
60' 2.175
330' 6.399
1/8 9.351
MPH 78.345

and that equals to 14.565 @ 94.443 on the 1/4 mile (same run actually)


weird thing is I had a better 60' than you, you had better 330' than I, and I had better 1/8th mile. lol

Ya...I got crazy traction out of the hole...hit 2nd and broke the tires loose. My friend is gonna bring me some slicks to run on this week. I'm sure traction will help ALOT!

what clutch are you running? With my Centerforce I am unable to break the tires loose into 2nd... f**king clutch just slips.. its new with about 5000km's of normal driving on it.. Was my first time to the 1/4 with this setup


Best of the day was a shitty 14.8@93.8

I ran a 9.51xx the last time at the track. This was straight off the highway, then it rained. I think I trapped 93.xx mph? I think I'm good for low 9's, then a 75 shot. Then somewhere in the 8's. Provided I get some traction.
65 shot > V8
