1/4 Mile Times


Zappo

Recommended Posts

We all already knew about that member obtaining those times, as he regularly stuffed it down everyone's throat cause he thought it'd made him super awesome.

There's several members who have produced sub 14 times on a stock 16T, what NW T5R was getting at is the majority of members running with broken cars or poor tires getting much higher times than they should given their modifications.

Agreed, but alot of it has to do with the drivers themselves, they preload the auto transmissions up to 2lbs of boost, and think that mashing on the gas is going to yield the best times, this is not the case, throttle control out of the gate is needed on ANY tire apart from a slick or drag radials as there are only a couple of cars on the forum that would warrant using them. Nobody should be racing a car that is in bad shape, it just leads to more problems :tup:

Stock T5 w/MBC @ 15 pounds & Muffler Delete:

60ft: 2.337

1/8th ET: 9.67

1/8th MPH: 74.46

1/4 ET: 14.92

1/4 MPH: 95.97

My 3rd run.... ever. First time out at the strip

Got 4 runs in today and that was my best. I'm sure I can get a 14.7 with a better launch.

Not bad Leo. Who'd you go with? Where is this place?

Thanks, man.

Me, Mark and my friend from school.

Mark was getting some good trap speeds, close to 100.

We went to Milan Dragway

Best slip shows 14.1 @ 99 (2.3 60 ft), actual bests of 13.9 @ 100 (2.1 60 ft, 940 in sig...selling it this week, already took a deposit on it).

Will be buying an 850T for a DD soon...hoping for similar times (14.0 @ 100). Still researching what it takes. I'm hoping a good chip, 19T, 3" turbo back, IC upgrade, injectors and C16 fuel will do it. Does that sound realistic?

Went to cecil tonight got 2 runs

14.400@100 2.57 60'

13.904@100. 2.23 60'

1st run guy kept me waiting at the line and I just rolled into it

2nd run went solo(right lane got oiled down all night) powerbraked it to around 2.3K I knew it was faster in the first 20ft spun for a second and just HOOKED it made my butthole pucker in fear for my axles

Best part is my current "setup" 15" steelies 1 with rust time attack lip and both with tires that sat on my wagon for 2 years with no movement :)

Will post pics 2morrow
