they would only let us run the 1/8 last night (wind).
do any of you math-magicians know what 8.1 in the 1/8 would turn out to be in the 1/4?


on the way home last night a big nasty turbo supra tried to pick on me.
he lost
he lost from a second gear roll.
that was more fun than the track.

My car doesn't like RMR, it knows that I suck so bad it'll get beat and make all the other Evos look bad...

1/8 - 8.1
1/4 - 16.2
As you can see, it's not really MATH involved... it's physics, and there's too much of it involved in racing for me to exactly calculate what you could've done (maybe you'd have missed a shift or something?) But if you really want I can get a rough estimate (not just multiplying by two... ) Damn... I can do a lot with physics and just the two facts of 1/8 mile and 8.6 seconds... ah yes, I did actually get something out of it Maybe someone has an equation to figure it out with fast that like some magazine has or something... I dunno, I'll give it a whirl later

seth probably a 12.7 or so depends on how much mph you gain up top what do you usually trap @??

Yeah, see, I figured one Zach would probably have a good estimate without me having to work it all out. I might come out sometime...

ok
my best 1/4 (two months ago) 12.87 ET at 109.1 TRAP with an 1/8 of 8.35sec at 85.5mph
my 60' was 1.975

My 1/8 from this weekend was 8.17sec at 86.68mph

I think i may be teetering on the verge of pulling timing. Al tuned my car at 19psi on methanol.
since then i fixed all my boost leaks(i think, they are a plague)
turned the boost to 28 and put the bigger throttle body on.

AEM will fix that.

oh
got my 60' 1.86
the exedy is unbelievable.
