1/4 mile times??
#13
6MT, 3.31 gears - bone stock.
my best was a 14.188 @98
consistantly 14.220s at 98...
I should find/scan/post my slip(s) , i can't even remember my 60' , all i know is the track was slippery ... i'm sure it could've been in the 13.9s at 100 with some compound down.
interestingly, my bone stock bike ran 10.02s at 142 all day (i was shooting for a 9) , i love lining up beside stretched 'busas with slicks and taking them at the top end... it's an 08 honda CBR1000rr

I had a bit of fun on my way back from work Friday to test my 1/4 mile time. The DiabloSport Trinity I have has timing functions for 0-60, 1-100, 100ft, 1/8 mile, and 1/4 mile. The timing can be worked off when the car starts rolling or a tree. I was on a road in S Florida where the second 1/8 is a fairly significant rise up to a freeway overpass. The outside temp was 92. The intake air temp was 117. I used the tree function of the tuner and spun a bit off launch. My car will not hook beyond a 1750 rpm launch from a stop unless I heat the tires. I have 3:73s and an Auto tranny. This was the first time I'd even tried to run a 1/4.
My result was: 13.76 at 106mph. Not bad for a V6 auto.
My 0 - 60 times have been ranging from 4.86 to 5.41 depending on how I hook when screwing around off a light.

It was tune by DiabloSports in Delray Beach, FL. Their tune should be available to the market fairly soon. I was given the tune and Trinity device gratis, as I let them use my car as a tester. I believe the Trinity is $500 - $600. I understand that's more than the Bama/SCT tunes, but the numerous functions of the Trinity and the apparent greater power from their tune are well worth the additional cost.
I can't wait to take my car to a proper strip to see what it will run. I'm a previous track driver, so I like my car balanced. I've never seen the fun in straight-line runs..until now..

I have always been a spectator, but dragged in 70's a few times and as of present day a couple times, it is fun, but I pulled out on the road today with ambulance approaching...not in their emergency mode but they were runnin I would say about 80, 1/4 mile away so I popped out on the road and that sucker pulled to a 100 easy before hittin 5th and 6th lol, just filled up so was hoping to see a good average mpg's cause had 25 miles of straight driving, but that episode put it at 6.2 mpg for next 3 miles , then at the end of ride 28.7...that diablo does sound cool though..I had the XCAL3 sct before so used to it, we'll see.
