1998 Trans Am
3.73 rear gear

8.33@85.7 1/8th on a 1.90 60'

8.42@85.5 1/8th on a 1.99 60'

M6

346 hp 347 ft/lbs, on a Dynocom loaded Dyno

3417 lbs without Driver.

I would guess a 12.8 or so...

8.42@85.5 1/8th on a 1.99 60'


Those times convert to a 13.0 @ 106mph.

I can do a conversion. I am looking for someone with similar times/speeds in the 8th and how they ran.

Ok, then see my post above.

I sorted through a couple hundred old time slips looking for one that was
similar to the increments you posted.

60 - 2.080
330 - 5.617
1/8th ET - 8.496
1/8th mph - 85.87
1000' ET - 10.983
1/4 ET - 13.095
1/4 mph - 106.84

That was done with my 2000 A4 LS1 that weighed 3,400lbs without me in it. So, as I stated previously, that converts to a 13.0 @ 106mph.

How's that for "something a little stronger?" :D

That almost exactly matches my run.

It would put me at a 12.95 or so with my 60'

But it's also an M6, so I should pick up more downtrack.

It's irrelevant now, my 10 bolt died. =(

Bench racing to the hundredths place is a pushing it a little too far. :lol:
There's too many variables...shifting ability, clutch slip, missed gears, etc.
The car is capable of 12.90's, but you'd realistically see a 13.0.

It was in my budget.
