I wouldnt think so... I would have thought atleast a 14.8x. Have you gotten your car tuned? what wheel horsepower are you putting down?

With your trap speed being in the 90's you should be able to get it down a little bit. Also try to work on that 60' time

Sounds like you went to the dragstrip, not the track.

Then don't. When you say "the track" it makes you sound like a poser, using a term to make people think that you were on a REAL track (a road course), doing something different from what you were actually doing.

So just say "at the dragstrip". It's a perfectly good word, that is well understood everywhere. Everyone will know what you're talking about, and you won't get flamed.

it totally depends where you are from. MOst people here in chicago use the term track as the 1/4 mile. Dunno- we aint trying to be posers or souond "cool" thats just the word we refer too.

But anywayz back on topic--time seem kinda low

also lose the usdm header

I guess it could depend on where you are from... but then again, maybe not, not based on the example you give. Because most of the people I know here in Chicago - where I live, too - use the term "dragstrip" for places like Great Lakes where you can do quarter mile runs, and use the term "track" for road courses like GingerMan and Road America, with lots of turns connected by straights.

Anyway, sorry for the digression.

Empty the car, make sure your gas tank is close to empty, and let air out of your tires...
