Originally posted by Justin99RS i cant say that i agree with that very much... when all motor i was trapping 90mph, accoriding to that would have been a 14.5.... now on boost i was running 14.5 at 98, and according to that i should have been running 13.5...which isnt gonna happen...maybe if your are shot out of a launch cannon or something...
Well, first of all, your chassis isn't Super Stock-quality lol. And second of all..

So yes, assuming you have all the requirements, you can run a 13.5 @ 98mph.
edit - I just looked at VX100's post to see what his mph was and it was 91.05(good for 14.5 according to the chart). I bet if he put some slicks on(assuming he doesn't already), he would be in the 14's for sure.
