14.2 Seconds On The 1/4 Mile

N54Angel · 05-05-2016, 07:08 AM

I honestly thought I would get somewhere around the 13 seconds. I have little mods so what can I expect. Also I'm in the mile high area so I'm above sea level. Colorado to be specific.

Mods:
MHD Stage 1 (STOCK CAR)
DCI
BMS Cowl Filters

Still running the stock RFT's? Auto/Man trans? What was your 60ft time? How many miles are on the vehicle? What was the engine temp? Sorry, so many questions but when I ran a 13.4 I expected high 12s so i'm giving you some of my excuses lol.

sirdaft1 · 05-05-2016, 08:09 AM

Surprised those BMS Cowl Filters didn't get you deep into the 9's.

I have 123K Miles. I do have run flat tires on my car. I have a Manuel transmission 6speed.

And how did you run 13.4 what place did you race at? Because of the altitude I'm not pushing the same amount of boost as you

I know I expected early 8's with that there xD

But in all seriousness I just wanted people
To know what I have. Everything makes a small difference. Car weighs 3850

What's the 60' and trap speed, some vital information in determining what is going on with that time.

My reaction time was a little slow here

^^^^THIS.....

60' and trap speed tells all..

Your 60' is probably 2.1-2.4 with the manual. Your altitude is also a huge crutch compared to someone running @ or near sea level.

Reaction time has no effect on ET. Don't worry about it.

Your MPH is a little low, even being @ 5000' ASL......

WreckerX5d · 05-05-2016, 09:14 AM

You can get a mid 13s time with that trap, you need to work on the launch. I'm not too familiar with how fast the gas versions should be running with X mods so someone else can chime in there.

Cory S · 05-05-2016, 09:23 AM

Drop that 60' to a 2.0, and you will drop close to 5/10th's off your ET. That would put you at around a 13.75-13.80 ET.

Cory S · 05-05-2016, 09:26 AM

My 60' is just OK, but it helps tremendously. I am self tuned, stock turbo, stock downpipe. Just a BMS CAI. However, I am also @ 100' ASL.

N54Angel · 05-05-2016, 09:33 AM

Yea this is my 2nd time on the track so my launch was not the best. I went from a 14.6 to a 14.4 to 14.2. Just need to practice and more mods

924er · 05-05-2016, 02:04 PM

Reaction time don't matter. The timer starts when you go

That's 60' is pretty awful for an AWD car. You need to work on your launch...a lot. Launch at a higher RPM and slip the clutch a little more (not a lot more...a LITTLE MORE).

Must be a pretty conservative tune for only trapping 100. Get a little more aggressive on the tune as well will help.

N54Angel · 05-05-2016, 06:35 PM

Yea I need to work on my lunch more, also I forgot to state that this was my first time EVER at the track.
