so if my car wieghs about 3000lbs and i have about 250 hp what will my car run in the 1/4 mile

 

Too many variables to answer that question. Gearing, your driving abilities, tires, elevation, temp, etc.

 

you'll run 10s dude...trust me, i have a uncle who once dated this chick in highschool who ended up becoming a scientist. so i know my shyt

 

based upon the what the current accords can do, I would say that you need much more than 250hp to get to 10sec quarter. it takes a viper 1000hp to break the 10 sec quarter

 

I think he was joking but yea you would need much much much more than 250HP to run 10s...id say in your case youll run somewhere in the 15 range

being that a stock 5th gen accord runs high 15's with a cat back, i doubt it. probably in the high 13s

 

yea your probably right...im not good with the whole 1/4 mile thing...ive never ran my car so I dont even know

 

Hey, if I had like a billion horsepower in my totally gutted Accord, how fast would my quarter mile be? lol. J/k. I thought it was funny

still not as fast as Chuck Norris could run the 1/4 mile..........on foot....

 

Haha, this was pretty close for me. It says you'll run 13.3 but obviously there are TONS of variables.

never..your motor would probably blow upon launch, and if not then you'll spin your tires in one spot for about half-an-hour or til you get to your rim and start shooting sparks

 

my bet... 13.9-14.1 @ atound 101-102 (if you know how to drive)

 

wait...is this 250hp at the crank or wheels???

 

sweet, by that calculator I should be running 11.9-12.0's...

seriously though, I would think that bigdaddyvtec's estimates are in the ballpark..., although as others said there would have to be some more information to speculate more accurately (ie. tire size, gearing, whp or chp, etc.)

anyways it is all just best guess until you take it to a track and get some passes under your belt, the big thing would be if you can get it out of the hole with some traction.

 

i would say mid 14's imo, it all depends how good of a driver you are and tires suspension etc... im assuming that that 250 hp estimate is at the flywheel...i ran a 14.1 in a stock m3 (e36) so that's my estimate for you time

 

go spend the 20-50 bucks(i dont know how much it is in your area) and go to a track and just run it. you'll not only know what you'll run, you'll have alot of fun too

 

i have an accord that weighs 2720 lbs with a stock h22 (170whp est.) and I ran a 14.9.
