110 mph in the 1/4

  • Sponsors (?)


my best time was,12.5xx with 1.7xx 60f (last time I was at the track) today I did couple passes almost identical times 1.8xx 60 f 12.8xx @110mph,my tires sucks azz:nonono: ,I was able to work the clutch half way dissent in first gear ,but second gear was really bad:( ,that was when I lost most of my time....... (I think)
 
I ran a 12.9 @ 117mph with a 2.2 60ft Yesterday on street tires, no traction and an underpowered clutch :rlaugh:

But my buddy in his 99 Lightning ran a 12.2 @ 107mph with a 1.8 60ft. So I would imagine a 111mph would equal a good 11.9 pass.

Why don't you post the whole time slip?
Depends on a number of things I would guess 1.7xx 12.2xx 110.xx
 
i ran an 8.6 at 86 on the 100 shot with a passenger in the car. 2.02 60' lol. sprayed in 1st but i had to shift quick and spun like crazy when i hit 2nd.

that would be a low 13 at probably around 110 lol.

oh yeah track alt was 2500ft with a slight 10mph head wind.
 
A friend of mine has a 2006 Mustang GT running 11's @ 107 MPH. Another guy I know has an old Chevy Nova running low 11's @ 100 MPH. 111 MPH can get you into the 11's, it really depends on your 60 FT.
 
^That nova sounds like its dropping off HEAVY on the topend or he is letting off. If he has only enough power to accelerate to 100MPH in the 1/4, he just wouldnt have enough power to pull the 1.3 60' thats needed to do that LOL.

For refrence Warrior, my car went a 12.79 @ 108.8 with a 1.85 60' back when I was all motor. Since yours is obviously stronger than my car was, a low 12 should be pretty easy with some sticky tires. Guy with a mach trapping 109 or so ran 12.4s on some slicks. 1.7x 60 I believe.

The car has the power to do it, the problem was he was running out of gear. I don't know if he has sorted that out or not yet I will know next year when I see him at the track again.
