im pretty impressed with the accuracy of the 1/4 mile time though, 14.1 is right where a stock 94-98 GT should be.

his very is heavier, so maybe.. 14.4 stock?

then he adds bolt ons, so back down to 14/14.1?

Whooooooaaaa wtf? A bone stock 94-98 GT runs 14.9's stock, AT BEST.

There is no such thing as a stock non P.I. mustang running anything faster than high 14's

Oh and yea, street & strip are two completely different animals

i know for a fact this thing is within .2 seconds. my friends 03 wrx is the most consistint car i've seen. At the track it runs 14.3 all day long, hot or cold. i put between a half car to 2 cars on him in the big end at around 95mph depending on launch. his car is awd so its always rockin out the hole.

First of all .2 seconds is kind of a lot, if a 1/4 mile track varied that much you'd have a lot of pissed off racers lol. second I don't know how you calibrate it for your car, but it's possible that it's going to be more accurate in some cars than others.

I hate when people go "well I was 2 cars behind him on the street so I must be close to him". Street racing means NOTHING, a strip 1/4 mile vs a street race is stupid. Put up a REAL time slip before saying "well, my car SHOULD run this". FYI, subaru WRXs ARENT fast, my friend has an auto one and he raced my buds bone stock 95 GT and smoked him by 3 cars...
an auto wrx is going to have a crap load of drivetrain loss over a stick.

wrx's are not fast, neither is my car. the two of them are very close tho. a stock 2003 wrx should run 14.6 in the 1/4 my friends has a few bolt ons and runs 14.3's at the drag strip. his launch is the same as the street and he runs street tires at the track. his awd leaves him with no traction issues. my car on the other hand likes to spin thats why earlier i said depending on launch, meaning my launch. im ahead of his car by a fender up to two cars by 95mph depending on my launch.

so with all this how does a 14.1 sound so crazy? yea my trap speed might be off but that doesnt change that fact that my stang ran a low 14 on the street.

and yes i know the street and track are 2 different worlds. its finaly nice outside so i'll be making a trip to the local strip one of these test n tune days. i just wanted a baseline to work off since my headers, cobra intake, 70mm TB and gears have gone on the car.

it doesn't sound crazy. it just sounds inaccurate.
kind of like when you take a test, and ur thinkin "i probly got a B+, A-" but u dont know until you get the test back.
Go to the track. get the test back

I am going to have to agree with 99% of whats been said here. 2 Car lengths on 14+ second cars is a little more than .2 in the 1/4. Secondly the 2.6 60ft and 14.1...highly unlikely. If his car is 14.3 and you are "14.1" you are talking about (in a perfect race) MAYBE a bumper and half a fender to a bumber and whole fender ahead. Thats it.

Question: Have you ever RACED at a strip before? your 60ft time is a HUGE, and I mean HUGE variable in what your 1/4 mile time will be. If you Somehow DID get a 14.1 with a 2.6 60ft,your car would be capable of mid 13s with good tires. Just saying, don't brag until you have A REAL slip backing it up. Sure, I can say with my HCI swap that my car SHOULD run low 13s, but will it? Probably not so I don't say I have a 13 second car until I can prove it, right now, my car is a low low 15 second proven car...

take your car to the track, then get back to us with your times. Then we can see how accurate your G-tech is.

Ummm, without a timeslip from a REAL racetrack, you don't.


Go to the track, get videos and timeslips, and post them up. Hopefully, you'll prove us all wrong.

are you high?

that would be more accurate if you said 15.1

EDIT: ahh, I see.

+1

Sorry to burst your bubble but I would almost guarantee you wont run 14.1 at the track.
