60........3.68
1/8.......9.682
1/4.......14.89
mph.....93.36
setup was a 96 ek hatch with a jdm gsr swap with just intake. i think i could get it down to a 14.6 or so with a better launch. only got 3 runs in all day so i hope for better next time. tell me what you think. thanks for any help

yeah it was my first time and no typo
my goal for the day was just to get a 14. but i know i can do better next time. what kinda time should i be getting with a better 60 seeing how i was trapping at 93

if that 60' time is right,you should be able to get down to a 13.5 with a better launch!!-it's horrible.
that's a fast time for that setup considering your 60'.doesn't seem right.you sure it shouldn't be a 2.68?

everything in my post is correct. i had a ton of wheel spin running on falken azenis. i know the 60 can be lower but i only got 3 runs that day and it was my first time at the track. there were other people there trapping at like 92 running 14.4 and what not so i would hope to run somewhere near next time with much better launches

yeah something doesnt add up.. with that 60' ft, you would be in the 13's if you even came close to a 2.3 60' ft... plus your trap is at 93 mph, thats good for a mid 14 e.t. at best..
Dang...3.68. I can probobaly go faster than that to 60 feet short shifting my car....
In all seriousness though, if you get that down you should be much quicker.

From what I understand every .1 you knock off of your 60' time you should be able to get down .2 on your 1/4 time. That would put you at mid 13s and I'm not real sure about that though...

That is just a rough estimate. I don't think he's lying about his awful timeslip

i am not lieing. i have the timeslip in front of me right now. i have a stok jdm gsr in an ek hatch with an intake. also was running open header, i think i forgot to post that in my original post. so at least a low 14 is what i should expect next time
I don't know how anyone can blow a launch that bad...seriously. On uber-shitty 175/60 R14 General Ameristar stockers at 32psi, with a d16z6 with 250k miles on it, I couldn't do WORSE than a 2.7.
Realize, your time means that you go 60 feet in about 4 seconds then the rest 1260 feet in 10.5 seconds...that doesn't add up.

even just dumping the clutch at redline on Azenis should net a better 60' than 3.6!
i'm not saying you're lying,but something doesn't sound right.....
a couple summers ago,my roommate had a C1 in CX EG.totally stripped(nothing but dash and front seats-not even door panels in it),with CAI,header and open exhaust,he ran 13.7s at VMP.this was on drag radials(consistant 1.9-2.0 60')-can't remember trap speeds....i was very impressed by this.if your above timeslip is correct,you should be as fast or faster than this with average street tire 60' times.
your car is considerably heavier than his,with slightly less mods-i just can't see it.
