Default Track Times

Went to the track last weekend, but they weren't doing a normal tree drop, we would stage, and then the green light would flash and we'd go, so reaction times sucked! Based on my times though, what do you think I'd be running on a normal tree launch? Should have an LS6 intake on the next trip down, how much quicker might I be?

Reaction time - .981
60' - 2.293
1/8 - 8.686 @ 87.23mph
1/4 - 13.133 @111.11

haha, that is a real tree, i hate them dam sportsman trees, it dont test driver skill at reaction, it just test how well you can time it as it starts counting.
but no mater what tree you run, it wont affect your time. with a intake you might pick up a tenth. on the pro tree you need to get like .0xx reaction time to even have half a chance in a decent bracket race. i usually shoot for .01x or .00x lights.
you get that 60' down you should break 12's no problem next time.
good luck

It's instant green, they do it here at HRP on Sundays. . R/T's don't realy account for 1/4 mile numbers. R/T's just let you know YOU NEED TO WAKE UP.
