Title: 1/4 mile table
Post by: Anonymous on June 25, 2007, 23:39
wow, cool thing to have on here! i see a 13.3 (i think it was) is the best time. i guess everything as far as time is the same over the pond as in the u.s? if so, im going to the track to get a time, i know i can blow away a 13 sec. 1/4, so i can finally get to be at the top of a list  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  .

Yeah, they are the same. Come to think of it, someone should change their system, it's just too easy like this. I propose the following into US.

1 day=1 day, which is divided into parts, like 1/4day meaning 6 hours and 1/32day meaning 45 minutes. And one second would be equal to 1/3600 days.  s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

Some european tracks are already having a go at it, they are 400 meters instead of 1/4 mile.  s:? :? s:?  (1/4mile is some 402.x meters)


More seriously, that 1/4 mile table is kinda new over here, so I suppose many haven't reported their times yet. So go on, give us something to beat!  s:D :D s:D

I can do a 1/4 mile in 10.4 but then I have to put the Blackbird away and get the MR2 out  s:( :( s:(

Not really, i believe because of the US gearing ratio's youre car would actually be slower than a UK spec 2, thats if you had the same setup but different gear boxes, the UK one would win everytime!

Actually the US box would probably be faster.  s;) ;) s;)  Stock vs stock that is. They have faster gearing over there.
