Re: Qtr mile time estimates

**big_red** · 16-07-2005 12:42 AM

got a question for you guys ... it's about qtr mile racing

Went to heathcote a few weeks ago for a few runs down the qtr

I was running consistent 110 plus mph ... topping at 116 mph for the day but
could only manage a best time of 13.8 secs..

What am I doing wrong cos that mph should give a much better time?
Was running slicks as well... at 16 psi

I'm sure there are guys here that have run these mph before.... or more ..
Any tips would be greatly appreciated ...

something is very2 wrong here . what is your 60ft time , what is your engine set up , on what car?

**GSI-PSI** · 16-07-2005 09:43 PM

think hes talkin shit EG5. THis times pretty much impossible on a so called "slightly worked" motor. Fair enuf the B18c is in a CRX but still it cant happen.
