Default first time to a 1/4 what will i run

Well im finally going to make a trip to a 1/4 april 22 to kcir. We have an 1/8 here locally but ive only been there one time and the car was a completely different setup. Its now a 6.0, custom grind cam somewhat similar to the el toro cam, th400, yank 4k converter, and 150 shot with bolt ons. Car has not been finished being tuned yet so i cannot give numbers either. On top of it all it will be my 2nd time to a track in my life actually running my own car. I havent had time to get familiar with this setup so i wont be consistant at all either lol. Sooooo what will i run?

He better be in the mid-low 6's or even the 5's with that setup. Ima say mid 10's in the 1/4 on the bottle. My Stock bottom end full weight and stock suspension H/C/I LS1 went 6.92@98mph in the 1/8 and 10.90@123mph in the 1/4 N/A..


Good luck man and I hope you reach your goals.

i was only able to make two passes faster than 11.4 w/o getting kicked off b/c of having no cage. My best pass was my last running an 11.0 with a 1.62 60' and trapping 125mph. A lot of people werent hooking that great. If i could cut a better 60' like a 1.4 range it would be running mid 10s for sure. Unfortunately a couple weeks ago i spun a rod bearing and motor is pretty much trashed.
