Default Turbo cars, how does your back half vs front half look? 6.0@120 1/8 is?

Finally got my rear mount 76mm car out, went 6.000 on a pretty lame 1.50 60 ft. Have a lot of little bugs to work out, just trying to get an idea of how they normally backhalf.

I have had a couple turbo cars run close to that in the 1/8 and it should go 9.20 at 152 or so through the 1/4.

since you don't have any 1/8 mile tracks around...why the hell didn't you run it out the back door?

With a legit 120 trap, meaning that it 60'd well, you should pickup about 30 on a turbo car. A bad 60' will usually pickup more out the back door.

My car usually picks up 26-27 mph from eighth to quarter with 6.5@109 times. Your time is moving. Congrats

Thats sounds like converter is inefficient or something. I know mine picked up @30 on 4 psi 105 or something to 135 or thereabouts. If it ran the 1/8 real hard I could see that but with a 1.5 doesnt sound right

there is not going to be any answer the same-every combination will backhalf differently-bigger turbos will run alot more mph at the same et,same with engine sizes.Gear ratio,trans,tire size and even aero play into it.The only way to figure out what it will backhalf is to do it.

My car wasnt 1/4 mile raced very much, but on a 18" drag radial my car has ran with a 1.80 60ft, 6.21@122mph in the 1/8th and 9.40@155mph in the 1/4. My car picked up 33mph on the big end.
