First time in dragstrip (time?)
its' my first time ever in a 1/8 dragstrip. anyway, i was wondering what would i time in a 1/4 mile dragstrip with this time.
Reaction time: 1.185
60 foot Time: 1.898
Trap MPH: 05.0 (not sure if this is right but it's in the slip)
1/8 Elapsed Time: 7.552
sorry i don't have the speed
Please don't criticize me on my reaction time, i know it's a horrible time....
my mods:
MBC, ECU reflash from Al.
just wondering if its' a good time too....

Because for that 1/8th time the 05.0 would be most likely a 95 in the 1/8th. That is not possibly with just a MBC and flash. You would need exhaust at the very least, probably pipes, maybe an exhaust cam, etc.
For the record that equates to (roughly) an 11.87 @ 117.8 everything else being equal.

7.5 @ 105 i assume the slip dropped the 1, showing 05.
7.5 1/8 mile is good for low 11's such as 11.3-11.4ish
105 mph in 1/8 is good for high 10's.
and you say your mods are MBC and ecu flash. :O
with your mods you should be running around 12.8 @ 105 with a 1.8 60 foot.

something doesn't seem right. IX's are stong but not strong enough to run a high 11 sec pass, which your 1/8th mile ET is showing, with a flash & MBC.
were you running race gas and 28psi or something??

I think the "0" is suppose to be a "8" for the mph, so its 85mph, which is good for mid-low 12s.. and idk, maybe there was an error with the machine, cause if we could get a real read out of the mph then, we could tell if the 1/8 is accurate.

Yeah, you can't rely on those numbers, because they are not accurate. It's no use going to an 1/8th mile track and worrying about your 1/4 times. Just go to a real track, because those numbers are not legit.
Put it this way, my fastest ever 1/8th mile is 7.63@90.8, and that's with a 1.66 60' on a 12.0000 1/4 ET with a few more mods and race gas with great driving. Your driving was not good at all, your 60' was weak, and you have just basic mods. A 7.55 with that weak 60' would mean you're trapping high 90s in the 1/8th and low 11s in the 1/4 (with a good launch) with 120mph traps.
The numbers are useless, sorry.
