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".

. Just afraid of breaking something at the track. That would be an expensive wrecker bill

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".

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.
Been known to spray with it 2!

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.
