Default chart of stock 1/4 times and graph for 1/4mile ET vs. MPH trap

i ran across this nice link that has a very complete listing of 1/4 mile times for cars in their stock form. i think it is a nice reference: http://www.japandomesticmotor.....html

i also brought those numbers into a spreadsheet and made a graph to give you some idea of how you are driving. for example, if you have a trap of 100mph and your ET was 14.3, you know that you're making the power and with practice should be able to get closer to 13.9. of course these are all estimates, but i thought it was a nice reference for the n00bs to dragging like myself.



comments welcome

So what does it mean if you run faster then the trap speed says you should? Check my sig for the CRX.

seems accurate at some points while others are way off

drivetrain can change that quite a bit (ie: awd/rwd/fwd)

it's not too bad of a measurement. I run 98mph traps and hitting 14.5s. The graph is telling me I should be in the low 14s.

yeah and look at your 60ft: 2.3s. that means it would put you in the estimated area if you got it down to 2.0. thats how mine was too
