Quarter mile time

[TheMaster]

Went to bradenton motorsports park last night. It was pretty hot and humid but, thats how it goes in florida. Made 5 passes and this is the best. All mods in sig.

60ft 2.052
330ft 5.807
1/8th 8.812
mph 81.85
1000ft 11.402
1/4 13.567
mph 103.73

When it cools down this winter I think I'll be able to knock a few tenths off that! Also the car only has 1800 miles on it.

Great times considering the heat and humidity! You should have no problem getting into the low 13's in cooler weather.
BTW, which tune do you use(Torque/Performance/Race)?

 

[TheMaster]

torque

Are you running any sort of stickey tire? My Auto equipped GT ran a [email protected] and this was done with the 87 performance tune. 60' wasnt too bad either, 1.91 i believe. Im gonna have to try the 91 performance or torque tune next time.

no sticky tire, and I didnt let any air out. With more practice I may be able to get a bit lower 60ft. But in better conditions I was able to run a 8.58 1/8th as apposed to 8.8 so theres alot left in it.

I was out at Bradenton Motorsports on the 4th for 1320 night. I live in Manatee County...Those are good times, My 270lb behind could only pull a 14.4 in the quarter. it's a 2005 stock GT 5-speed coupe. Of course I don't have a lot of drag racing experience but is that a normal time for those humid conditions? there were a few other stock gt coupes out there that night running between 14.1-14.7 so I wasn't to embarrased.

With a bit more practice and some less humid cooler weather your stock 5 speed gt will get well into the 13s. But 14.4 isnt bad for and inexperienced driver and non ideal conditions. By the way Clean what was you 60ft

 

[cLeAnRaCiNgLdR]

ummm...I'll get back to you when I find the slip (I'm gonna go look for it now). I didn't pay attention to the 60ft time. does that time judge whether or not I had a good launch?

 

[TheMaster]

The 60ft will tell you how good of a launch you had.
