That was my best time my first time at the track. My car is a stock 98 talon 5-speed... nothing at all done to it. on 14's. it's the base model, manual windows, no sunroof or spoiler. anyway, that was my best time. I also ran a 10.0 but I redlighted by .02 seconds. The crazy thing was that my 10.0 was at 72mph. I need to get to a quarter track. Anyhoo, how are my times?

adam

if you're running 10.0 with no mods, then

A. your car must weigh very little (you said it was a base 5 speed with no options)

B. you are launching like a mad man (what was your 60 fot time???)

C. you have a factory freak engine

My best 1/8th mile time was 9.995 sec, with a best ever 1/8 MPH of something like 70.4 mph

ya, wat VX said... anutha freak has shown up...

wats your 60foot time? and what kinda accesory/options do u have (to get a weight estimate)..

props on da time, gotta slip????

peace

72MPH is just mad. I just broke 10 seconds in the 1/8th last week with a 9.987 and that was only 69MPH. Never even seen 70MPH yet. Notice I said..."yet".

my car is base, manual windows and locks, 5 speed, no rear windshield wiper, no hatch release, manual seats, 4 speaker sound system, I had about 10 lbs of stuff in the back of my car. My best friend has my precious time slip. I have a few other runs of mine though. How do I post a picture? I have the 10.2 run right here. By the way, I was running 2.4 60ft times. It was VERY hot outside and I never did get my car to hook well (on the stock 14's, haha).

I ran a 10.319 with my Probe on a 16.18 pass....with a 2.3X 60ft

that little probe of yours moves pretty good huh? you should just sell that 'stang and drop your money into the probe ;). just kidding of course.

adam

Thats a damn good time. Keep up the good work, and get to a 1/4 mile track! :)

what would I be running with a 50 shot, how about a 75 shot?

adam

I was just running 10.02 last night in the 1/8th, which was about 15.60 in the 1/4. I'd assume your time would be about 15.85-15.95 or so (rough guess)

a 50 shot should get you at least high 14's maybe mid 14's in the 1/4 (another rough guess)

I must be doing something wrong..... I have AEM Cam gears, AEM Cold Air Intake, 10.33mm Wires, NGK Plugs, AFX UDP, Cat back exhaust and a 60 shot of NOS. The fastest I ran with out Nos was like 10.73 and i got a 10.3 with nos.... so i must be doing something wong??? I do have a slipping clutch ... damn Centerforce Dual Friction...?

woah, time for a compression test. My times were in the middle of a 95 degree day also, I'm going to go one night and see if I can get into the 9's before I put on my intake. Also, what are your 60ft. times? you've GOT to launch that thing right. How are you shifting also?

adam

dude, is ur track downhill or something, my god man, 10.2 stcock is nearly impossible, I'm not saying I don't believe you. Mad Props dude!


stock 95rs=backroad rally champion

I put on a short ram intake, man that thing sounds mean now.... and pulls harder too. I'm going to the track this weekend when I get my exhaust put on... more times to come. Oh, and the track was actually like 6 feet long from what I understand, and it was pretty level. The left lane is perfect, the right lane you roll back SLIGHTLY so it's a bit uphill. I think I was in left lane on my 10.0 run and the right on my 10.2

adam

Diamn I feel slow...my best was 10.873 at like 66mph i think it was...well it was my first time at track...and i was a nervous shit

A 10.2 in the 1/8th is very good indeed!! My best run was a damn 10.70 with heavy 18's, an intake, GST Exhaust, KYB shocks, and Sprint Springs, also a very slipping clutch!! I have a new motor in now and will post new times shortly. Oh yea and a stripped interior....

I have a 96 RS with 150k mi, 5spd, blown struts, bald tires, and my clutch was slipping so bad on my first run I ran an 11.9@48mph. After letting it cool off and making 3 or 4 more runs, I ended up with a 10.4@67mph. As far as performance, I have a short ram and a *free* 4-2-1 header. Here is a link with some pics and my best and worst timeslips.
