Default What do I need in the 1/8th for an 11.99?

The car went 12.32 @ 114 (7.98 @ 89) with a 6 speed in it. It now has an auto and has gone a best of 7.62 @ 87 in the 1/8th. Will I be able to sneak it into the 11's with an 1/8th pass like this?

I went 7.7@94.xx in the 1/8th and 1/4 was 11.881 @119.44. I think you got it unless your car has no top end.

Yea but you have 7 mph on me in the 1/8th. I think the car will probably trap 111-112 in the 1/4.

In my car it took a 7.6@90. With your MPH you won't make it unless it really pulls hard on the back half. What's your gear?

It has 3.42s. Just ran at Zmax tonight. Best pass was a 12.23@111. 60ft was only a 1.69. The track was hooking but the car just didn't want to leave tonight.

My first 11 sec pass was an 7.6 at 92 and 11.9 at 116. I agree that it depends alot on how it pulls on the big end. From my experience you have to be at least in the low 7.7 if your car has good topend to crack 11s. Good luck1
