Depends on track prep and weather. I managed to cut my best 60' @ 2.017 but only mustered up a 13.43 with it. Still haven't beaten my best yet. Also on the same street tires as my best run.

what ever time u pick up on your 60' double that and that will be the time you pick up in the 1/4 mile so if you ran a 2.07 and you run a 1.97 on drag radials you should go from a 13.5 1/4 to a 13.3.... what mods do u have if any?

I had always heard that you could do 60' to 1/4 mile that way....but when I first ran my car at thet rack I had 2.0 60's and ran 12.9. Went back with some minor adjustments and better launch technique. Ran 1.72-1.75 60's and 12.6's. Dropped ~0.25-0.3 from the 60' and ~0.3 from the 1/4.
