I went to my first drag races on Saturday :rolleyes: It was the Texas State Championship Pro-Mods in Sealy, Tx. I was amazed at what I saw and heard :eek: Awesome is the only word to describe 2500 HP.
My question is, between the pro-mod racing they had the "Test & Tune" racing (all day). The guys with the strong street cars were running between 7.0 and 8.0 in the 1/8 mile and close to 100 mph. What would these numbers translate to in a 1/4 mile ? I'm assuming in the 11.5 to 12.0 second range.... :confused: What are some of your numbers ? Thanks for the input and this is one heck of a hobby. Loads of fun graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I've always used 1.57 for e.t. and 1.26 for mph.
