| That could be a possibility, Although i'm not sure how many people have dragged there car down the track. I think it would be
600SX 12.2? Nismodave 12.5? ???? | |

| Posted Forum 1/4 mile times are useless and nothing but a penis contest.
Its dumb and somthing that people from IL (chitownracing crowd) are concerned about.
For many of that crowd its a justification of the $$$$$$$$ they spent, and an ego thing so they can say thier cars are faster than X persons car.
Alas, I was one of this type for a number of years. But after being exposed to many different types of racing and Beating "faster" car on the street.....And being beaten by "slower" cars....1/4 mile times are a rough guesstimate how fast a car is at a certian time. | |

| The only thing a 1/4 represents is how fast some is from a stop going straight. The ability of the driver is not truely proven just that you have the ability to push on a gas pedal as fast as you can. Just like nascar is how good you can take a left turn. Now if we all had a day that we could go to the same road course and post our lap times from that. I think that would make it a little more interesting. | |

| 13.6X - Serious traction issues. 2.2ish 60'.
Stock Redtop, stock turbo, 17" street tires.
I was going to buy your slicks Evan, but I just don't care enough about 1/4 to warrant an extra set of rims/tires in my already cluttered garage.
240 is a terrible 1/4 mile car without serious devotion to the 1320 (read 4 link/tubbing).
If I were to do 1/4 seriously it would be 4th gen Fbody or Foxbody with an AOD/glide.

| No problem. I am sure I can go out and cut good times on these but I want to run my nice wheels all summer. | |

| Not that it matters, but my best time so far was a 12.21 with a 2500 rpm launch. The same trip I ran a 12.25 with a 3500 rpm launch, but missed 4th gear completely and rolled through the big end.

Here's my last time slips from Union Grove. Slicks were new, and I was still getting the feel for launching on them. -Car has all suspension arms upgraded except lower control arms front and rear -Adjustable KYB AGX struts (set fairly soft) with unknown lowering springs -26x8.5-15 M/T ET Drag | |

| I think a list of....
How many times us 240 owners get asked if we drift, or
How many times a STRANGER tells us what we SHOULD of done with our cars, or
How many times a 15 year old doucher askes us what it does in the 1/4...Would be much more entertaining. | |
