Heres a slip from one of my 15.2 runs...

R/T ... .889
60' ... 2.269
330 ... 6.451
1/8 ... 9.863
MPH ... 72.31
1000 ... .000
1/4 ... 15.273
MPH ... 91.20

Not saying it's B.S......but thats making up alot of time in the end 1/8 of the track.

A 9.998 1/8th 'should' be around a 15.5-15.6. So hes picking up .3-.4 just in the top end.

I'd really like to see an 1/8 trap speed though.

but thats the thing about the turbo they don't really come to life till they are in the upper range..........by buddys turbo sunfire ran 14.2@104 lol my old race car used to run 14.0@92

gearing, motors, forced induction all make differences i am gonna guess his 1/8th mile time was around 68 mph and it just started truckin in the top end when the turbo was wailing

well...then I'd say it has more to do with crappy gearing than anything.
