How can i improve my time or can i? 98 Z28 M6 the only mod is a lid.
Current times are 2.23 60'
9.87 1/8
14.44@99.89 mph
i know these times suck but remember im in west texas air our elevation is around 3800 asl so the air sucks. That night i ran i believe air was estimated to be at around 5000 (however its measured) with humity and what not.
Im just curious if my time should be a little faster because i have seen cars hit 13's with my mph. What might improve my 1/4 time. Im also running on stock radials.

Something doesn't jive.... Your 60ft is in line with your 1/8th mile time, but your 1/8th mile time equates to a 15.49, but you went 1 second faster at 14.44 at 99.89 mph, with your mph good for high 13's....

The car was spinning real bad when i hit second. Im thinking of trying some drag radials this weekend see what happens. im shifting at 6100 rpms. I think i could hit a 13 with that mph.
OH yea correction on the DA it was around 6800, the air suck over here
