Default high trap??

60 ft 2.19
330 ft 5.71
1/8 mile 8.48 @ 91.11 mph
1000 ft 10.79 @ 105.85 mph
1/4 mile 12.59 @ 117.58 mph


2000 Z28 6sp with pacesetter longtubes, true duals with an X pipe, An MTI lid, and a 100 shot NX kit.

That trap speed just seems really high. Granted i was on my street tires (winston winners, biggest POS ever.) Any opinons as to why my trap is high would be appecated. Also are those good numbers for the mods i have?

with that horrible 1/8 time compared to your 1/4 time you must have spun the entire 1/8. What were u spraying?

I am almost positive he is spinning pretty badly. I have the same set up and nitto, sfc, lca and torque arm. I am shooting for 11's in my next trip to the track.

I ran an 11.94 @ 117 with a 1.889 60' time and not spinning at all...if you were spinning that's still a pretty good 60' time!

My setup was/is:
99 Z28 M6
Pacesetters - custom H pipe true duals
Nitto's - Spohn LCA's - Spohn PHR
SLP lid, and a spec stage 3.
NOS 125 shot (about 90-100hp at the wheels)

Something went wrong because that 1/8 time doesnt go with that 1/4 time.

Yeah and look he picked up over 26mph between the 1/8 and 1/4...that's crazy..the most I picked up on nitrous was 23mph. His 1/8th indicates about a 12.9 run...I guess if he was roasting the tires that would make up for it some though...Another thing that could have happened is you could have gotten some clutch slippage in the first 1/8 mile.

A117mph trap is good for about 11.50 with the right traction. Right?

Good ole street tires. I got a 12.70 @114 with a 2.1 60 on street tires. I know people in M6 cars have done better but a good average driver will usually bust a 2.1.

You auto guys got the short times tacked on the board... we 6speed guys get a little discouraged with our times due to traction and getting out of the hole. That being said, there is still no feeling like running 400+ at the wheels in a 6spd and getting sideways scratching 4th at about 95 mph...

I picked up 27.418 mph NA went from 86.194 to 113.612. What does this mean?

Time slip looks like this

Raction .717
I1: 2.186
I2: 5.680
I3: 8.536
MPH (I3): 86.194
I4: 10.961

E.T.:12.995
MPH: 113.612

Mods in sig. I think I may have picked up even a bit more on the 113.66 mph run (my best) but cant find the timeslip.
