what 60 foot times

(1/3) > >>

wideopen231:
Wondering what kinf of 60 foot time most of you are getting. Asking because read a few post and time seems slower than I would have thought. If can give weight and power estimations and et's when replying. Also checking accuracy of drag simulator program I got from fellow racer. Seems to be way off w/o tweaking few numbers like frontal area and drag.

2 desrepencys one has to figure in is how the front end is built, my car has zero overhand so the front tire starts the clocks and trips the 60' timing blocks. Funnys and altereds can run as much as 40" of overhang, so the front tires start the clocks and the nose that trips the lites is 36'' ahead of where the beam picked up the start thus makeing it a 57 foot time instead of a 60 ft time. Dragsters are limited to 30" therefor 58ft clocks.

Chris my best ever was a 1.01 with a 200 shot of nitrous . For the most part on motor 1.07 to 1.10 . I would like it to be around 1.04 I just have not been able to find that right combination yet !

dreracecar:
60's are only relavent if you are not running for a fixed ET

Pipe Dreams:
Consistant 1.18' with the new 31x 10.5 Hoosiers. Per your engine dyno program I' m 631 hp and weigh 1600 race ready with me in the car. Best 60' 2 weeks ago was a 1.15
