http://public.fotki.com/morgie....html

by what i see is 7.2 @ 71 with a 1.7 60ft

for a 7.2 wouldnt that require roughly a 90mph trap even with no wheelspin

I think this wasn't even an 1/8 mile, 500ft if I remember correctly I know this drag strip and there was an street race event last week-end.

Yes, his 60ft is great, AWD must be fun but after that, for me, it's not really fast. I do 0-60mph in less than 4sec (which would be slow for someone else) which leave me more than 3 sec to get to 71mph. He would kill me on a start but I would destroy him after.
