I guess 1/8 mile times don't count towards the X second clubs?

From what I understand that is correct.

However one thing for sure with the use of the 100 shot in your sig you would end up with somewhere around a 10.75 ET at 122 MPH, if you took you car down a 1/4 mile track!

Good Luck and be safe!

Yeah, I knew it was a 10 sec pass in the quarter. Its a 10.60 on the conversion chart. We do not have any 1/4 mile tracks in my area. Closest one is 2 hours away and I have no tow rig. I thought one of the moderators would have at least gave me an answer to my request even if it was just a "Sorry, we do not include 1/8 mile equivelants".

You do not need a tow rig! Drive it!

I very well could:D. Just afraid of breaking something at the track. That would be an expensive wrecker bill:eek2:

I don't think they count them because a car could perform REALLY well down low and have nothing left on the big end of the track...and you might not always see that in the 1/8 mile. I'm not saying your car doesn't...it probably does quite well...but it's only fair to require the entire time slip to justify saying "you did it".

exactly you could put like a 5.88 gear and top out right around the 1/8th
and not have a chance in hell of running 10`s

Yeah, I get it. Just kinda excited to know that I have the capability to run 10's.
Dave J-Those are real nice times NA. I have been thinking about a solid roller/single plane set-up.

Hell I drive my C5 everywhere. Cruise within 200 mile from home and race. I drive with M/T DRs on. I race it like I drive it. Even get around 26 mpg got to love it. Runs about middle 11s with 1.61 60ft.

Well that would be true but you can tell by the mph if its only a 1/8th monster or not. If you have a good mph i dont see why it shouldnt count IMO.

Members have to run a 1/4 mile time(Time Slip) to get into the ET Clubs.

Yes your car wuold run in the 10's on a quater mile track. Sounds to me you need to make a round trip.:nod:

Just moved here last June. Previously lived in Corydon. I don't drive the car regularly. It sees about 500+ miles a year. My car is down right now too. Getting a new TB, more intake portwork, stainless long tubes, battery relocation, atlernator relocation and abs delete.
