An ST with a 16.1!!!!!!!!!!
Dammit .... I just put away my BS flag too Let me share some STOCK 1/4 times (remember these cars are from the factory stripped down with no a/c and what not) 94 Celica GT - 16.4 99 Grand Am GT - 15.9 95 240SX SE - 16.1 95 Eclipse GS - 16.6 01 Cougar V6 - 16.1 99 Civic Si - 15.7 97 Civic EX - 16.6 93 Probe GT - 15.8 03 Stratus R/T - 15.9 94 Integra GS-R - 15.5 and these where stripped.... so your 16.1 beat all of these? EDIT: 16.7 with an rookie driver and a 10yr old car - GREAT JOB Slow This post has been edited by turboinduction: Jul 21, 2004 - 3:54 PM |

There's this lovely thing called below and above Sea level...You will get Faster times on the east coast. Ask anyone who has ran their car at the Epping Dragstrip in NH and then Ask that same person what their time was in Cali..BIG diff.
Also, I was having 89Mph 1/4 Miles. This post has been edited by 97Celica: Jul 21, 2004 - 3:59 PM -------------------- |

My dying and pretty much stock ST ran a 17.7 in the quarter mile. I didn't think a stock ST is capable of a 16.1. What was your trap speed on that run? I know that John Dolocek runs 15.9 second passes in his ST, but he works on race cars and knows his stuff and his car isn't stock.

*sigh* I guess I will have to try and dig up some time slips. Before the Celica, I used to build and race rally cars...I put one into a tree at 65mph and broke several bones...After that I took racing more seriously and practiced launching...I can outlaunch almost any car.

I raced in Indiana. The weather was nice, not too humid, probably 75 degrees out. Also, the track I race at is prepped very poorly. Or so I'm told by just about everyone. My motor also has 101k miles on it. I haven't fully learned how to drag race yet, (yes, there's more to it then launch and slam the gas) maybe i beed to feather the throttle more during wheel spin/hop.
16.1? on an ST? I've love to see some 60" times and trap speeds. As far as video goes, they're not even on my computer yet, still on buddies's vid cam. So gimme awhile. I think there's a video of a hayabusa popping a wheelie all the way down the track, or most of it. Didn't see it, just heard. -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
