Default How much mph are you picking up after the 1/8th
On average I'm picking up 23 mph from the 1/8th to the 1/4 but I'm thinking I should be seeing closer to 25, mainly because I have an m6. What are you guys seeing and, if you don't mind, list your mods and your tranny type. Thanks.

On my 385 I'd see 25-28mph depending on how well I hooked. (97-99 in the 1/8th and 125-127 in the 1/4)

Yup, both of our cars picked up about 23-24 MPH.

2001 Camaro SS: 84 -> 108

1998 Camaro Z28: 99 -> 123

Damn, I pick up a solid 30mph. 101 - 131

Wonder why that is? Car is a M6, Mid 1.4 60fts, no wheel spin. Might have somthing to do with my slow shifting.

Mine read as:

Nova - from 94.55 to 117.69 mph

Formula - from 85.80 to 107.29 mph

Both of these are based times in the sig (N/A on the Nova)

In my old nitrous setup it ran 116 to the 1/8 and 143-144 in the 1/4. So 27-28 mph pickup.
