what times should i expect to do at track??
I am going to the track in 2 weeks and I was wondering what times I will expect to see. here is my set up.
85mm gsr
9:5:1 JE pistons
SC61

I will be running drag raidals. I have never ran my car at the track before, so I have no idea what class I will be running in. I posted this here seeing that I am FI. any ideas would be helpfull, and if I should move this to a diffrent thread let me know.

eg model cx, not sure of the weight, okay driving skills, sbc id, I am going to be using Neptune getting tunned tomorrow, I am hoping to make around 450whp, I was using hondata, car made 350whp at 8-9psi (wastegate, was a new build so I didnt want to push it) I will be turning the boost up. sold it to go to Neptune.

Re: what times should i expect to do at track?? (kodirtysi)
ok now your question is really abitrary...
-first you posted 350whp, and now you "might" be at 450whp...
-your "alright" driving skills could mean plus or minus 1 second or more...
-the altitude of the track makes a difference...
-the weather, heat humitity makes a big difference...
wft? common man, this thread is rediculous...

okay here is the real question I guess, what do most people run that have around 350-400hp eg hatch. I am just looking for ball park here. I will factor in my apility to drive, altitude, track conditions, ect. sorry for the abitrary question.

ok I don't want to sound like a dick, but there's really no reason to ask that question because you get like 3 qualifying runs before you go into a class... so just find out what your "ballpark" is at the track. plus all those factors mentioned can mean the difference of a few seconds total so whats the point?
my best time for the first time at the track was 13.006 @ 117mph on falkens
2k civic si 2600lbs, and about 350whp... if that helps...
now go find out and let us know

There are so many different factors that can affect 1/4mi times that there's really no sure fire way of saying what you'll run until you actually do it. Just get out there on the track and see what she can do

Re: what times should i expect to do at track?? (TRE_)
so what was it like the first time you pulled up to the line. I think I will be pretty nervous, until the light turns green. do any of you have any tips for launch and what not?
