#3428, "My 1/4 mile time. What do you think I could run?"


          

I have a '95 eclipse with performance plugs and wires, aem cold air, and hks dragger style muffler.

I went to the track in Bristol, TN and I ran a 17.8 at 80 or 81 miles an hour. I thing is, is that one of my friends said that I bunny hopped it 3 times pulling out, and spun probably about 40ft or so. My reaction time was a .322.

This was my first time dragging on a tree. So, what do you guys think that my car would run if I got a better reaction time, and didn't bunny hop or spin a lot?

'94 Plymouth Laser RS (sold)

Maybe a low 17 with better traction and less wheel hop. Reaction time doesn't affect 1/4 mile.

You're not your fu**ing post count.

my best time was 16.83 and that was bone stock with a 5 speed. I think your time should be around there.

We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very , very pissed off"

i think auto you could run about 16.5 to 16.8. manual i'm pretty sure with a good launch you could run 15.9 to 16.4 cuz my best time with a manual.... first time at the track with a 1/4 tank of gas, a heavy invader wing, a short ram intake, and pro 1 catback... i ran a 15.9 and with stock tires. good luck next time out!
