Umm, completely depends on the car. My car went 13.89 on a 2.01 60 foot with a stock motor w/ bolt ons.

anywhere between a 13.6-14.90 imean theres alot more to a 1/4 mile run then a 60 foot time

14.01-14.06 most likely. Definately in that range.

You need alot more info to answer that question. There alot of turbo cars that leave really soft but then pull like a freight train on the big end. You really need to give the specs of your car like engine, suspension, tranny, tire type and size, launch rpm etc etc.

Well it is a convertible with some ungodly rollbar some kid installed.it prolly weighs about as much as a small herd of goats.

You guys are all wrong, I have no idea what you are basing your numbers on, but my extensive racing experience says 14.01-14.06. And I'm never wrong when it comes to mustangs and drag racing.

5000 rpm launch on slicks and its only cutting a 2.02 60 foot? Something doesn't sound right, what kind of suspension?

What's it trapping?

yeah i was going to say i looked threw all my time slips and thats what i got and ok what if i cut a 1.847 60 foot and after that the car had issues and ran a 15.236 so i mean you can cut a good 6 foot and have issues down track and run a bad time

Exactly, and that can go the opposite way as well, you can cut a "bad" 60 foot, and pull like a freight train on the top end, and you'll also get some crazy mph. That, again, is why I HATE when people compare traps. Back when I made my first couple passes with the car, I was trapping 100-101, but now that I'm getting my 60 foots down, my mph came down almost 3 mph on my best e.t. run. To me, that's what matters in the end.

yeah i agree but the guy ran a 14.70 and was just woundering what a 2.02 60 should put him and like you said you can have a hell of a 60 foot and good time or a shitty 60 foot and pull hard on the top end

I agree with mustangboy..... a lot depends on it. I have ran on street tires, pulled 2.XX and still ran low 11's easily.

I am holding a timeslip in my hand with a 2.017 60' @13.423 @104.94mph. Trying to go off of a 60' to figure a 1/4 time is retarded.
