60ft. must be bad because that's a pretty high mph and tells me it's a quicker car than the et reveals. kinda hard to guesstimate without more info, but i would say 115-118mph might be close. i'd probably call the et closer to 12.30-12.50 though knowing it's pulling hard on the big end for whatever reason.

yeah, that's about right. the nsx consistently ran 8.6 in the 1/8th and 13.4 in the 1/4 and those times were with a 1.8 60ft. i think i remember a trap speed of 106 in the 1/4 so that would prove true to bbr's thinking.

here is my slip
no traction.

lots of factors, its hard to get even close to a real estimate, well not hard, but its a waste of time.

the 8.3 @ 90 was from this guy with an 88 rx-7 turbo like mine who randomly bugs me to ask for car advice or talk about his car. I thought the trap was pretty high... car only made like 305 rwhp

I would guess that would net around a 12.50 at about 115 on a long track.

That 1/8 mile pass is eerily similar to what mine's done on worn street tires with a 2.3-ish short time
