1.75 60’ on DOT tires is a DIRTY slick launch.

Nice driving ace.

I’ve never bested a 1.8ish (probably closer to 1.9) on 245 DOT’s.

Most recent… Sep 2008

R/T … .757  
60’ … 2.100  
330 … 5.831  
1/8 … 8.908  
MPH … 81.49  
1/4 … 13.938  
MPH … 93.16

Not me driving…But Dustin (Hurricane’s) 2nd run in my car. I even messed up the clutch.

Previously…car did a 13.9 as well but at around 103mph I think, with me driving. Clutch slipping a little bit.

I just don’t know how to drive that’s why.

Stock SR T25, 13 psi.

At CSCS on Sunday I cut a 1.9 60’ on 235/40/17 Federal 595’s. I was actually suprised ebcause my car is far from a drag setup.

I’m not sure I seen your car go down dude. Maybe I did. Who knows.

Set-up for drag is really not that complicated.

Main things are rear suspension, tires pressures and alignment.

Of course, stay in the groove as well.

I only cut a 1.9 60’ last time cause my tranny is ready to blow up and out of the housing. Launch at 3500, bogged into boost on 235/60R15 drag radials tire pressure set and rebound adjusted.

I need to play around with mine, still gotta get used to the car as well.

Ran that on falken 452’s 275/35/18, the track was ridiculously sticky, ive never had my car hook and go like it did at grandbend. There were 4 street class cars there and the rest all dragsters laying mats of rubber down. I thought something was going to explode dropping the clutch at 4500-5000rpm and thats the only way i could fly off the line! i tried at 3500 and i bogged down right off the line and lost to a mustang GT ☹

Hey guys, I took my s14 to cayuga last night for the first drag event i’ve ever ran. Couldn’t find my RA-1’s so i ran street tires 205/55/16 falken 451’s.

best 1/4 of the day: 13.4  
best trap speed for the day 109.92 mph  
best 60" time 2.1

mods: GT2871r .64 @ 14 psi, Tomei 2way LSD,

To people who are familiar with drag racing, what kind of times should i be getting with this setup?

lol, that’s why I said “apparently” but if you research, that app has some good credibility compared to the premo $200+ digital systems out there. Some of the apps for the iphone are really gold haha But I know the mph speed was off, although the 15s time is on target. Wouldn’t mind hitting the drag strip before any major change.

try the app “Dynolicious”. IMO it is a better app than pocket dyno.

I ran Dynolicious on one of my runs in cayuga. the 1/4 mile trap speed was off by only 3 mph.

^ Nice wide tires should help preferably 245 & up, summer ones for the best dry grip. Bridestone Potenza or Falken Azensis\Falken 452’s, Pirelli P-Zero’s…what you guys think?
