What's it gunna run this weekend?
 
Going to be popping the vette's cherry this weekend(as long as the weather holds up) and I'm just looking for some guesses. The car is bone stock, zero weight reduction, and will be on 315 BFG drag radials. Whatcha think?

Probably gunna runna 12a.9a!

13.1@108mph with a 2.0x 60ft

depends on ur 60 and weather
If the weaters good either on of the 3:
12.9@109 1.91 60
13.1@107 2.02 60
13.4@105 2.20 60(bogging)

Looks like its gunna be cold so the car should have plenty of trap speed but it'll be tough finding traction. I'd be very happy with 12s

its atco, if you can make it hook, it will run 12.89 or a little quicker

Well they closed down the full quarter due to high winds but I managed:

-8.142 @ 88.43 on a 1.898 sixty(bog)
-8.136 @ 88.39 on a 1.945 sixty(spin)

I'll have a video of the 8.136 up sometime in the next couple days.

What do those 1/8 times/sixties equate to in the quarter?

first time out my '98 ran 13.7 at like 105. i was upset but my 60' was like a 2.2 and it was 90*+ outside with HORRIBLE track prep at BIR~Cole~

j0n, I've always heard that you multiply your 1/8 mile ET by 1.57 to get an approximate 1/4 mile ET. I just tried a quick google search and couldn't find anything to back that number up though.

That would make your 8.136 run a 12.77 in the 1/4.

315/35/17 BFG drag radials at ~20psi. It was about 30-32* so there was no traction whatsoever
