Check out my 1/8 time, curious here.
My best 1/8 run that I can recall is 8.410 with a 2.1 60'. With my calculations of my car having a multiplication factor of 1.52(ratio of 1/4 divided by 1/8), I get a 12.78, which is what I have seen an LS1 run, MN6, with my same gearing run at 12.72 so I know it's almost dead on. Is that a respectable time considering street tires, bad 60' and with my mods? It was over 90 when I ran this time. I had 2.0 60's on other days but the same E.T. because it was so hot and humid. Just curious. Thanks.

Re: Check out my 1/8 time, curious here. (C5Noir)
My best time in the 1/8 mi is 8.61 @ 85.8 mph. My 60 ft on that run was a 2.11. I have a 98 M6. Temp was in the high 80's with high humidity.(i live on the gulf coast). I was on runflats (24 PSI) and mods were TBB, Vortex rammer, removed MAF screen, A&A exhaust mod. I hope to get 8.4's , as i am planning more mods. Cooler temps will help, too. Won't be long! That was my first time with my C5, WAY different than with my 94 M6. With more practice, I hope to get better. SCOTT

January & February and June & July are different planets in Houston.
Yes, your times are respectable for the heat of summer. You have the breathing, now add a camshaft!
