So i went to the an 1/8th mile track a few days ago(1/8th mile cuz the nearest 1/4th is 6 hours away) and my best time was 10.01 at 76 mph. i was getting agrivated because my friend ran his dodge ram(cammed) and was doing 9.3-4 at 76 mph. The only upgrades i have is injen SRI and racingline y-pipe but i have 6 spd MT. Just wanted to get everyones times and see if it was just the track because it seemed like i get more traction on concrete than i did at the track! that isnt right =/

i dont have any times for you but i do have a quick related question hopefully someone can answer...

Anyone know of any iphone app that can clock 1/8,1/4, 0-60...etc.?!?

Im sure it wouldnt be 100% accurate but probably could be close...

P.S. I hope i didnt just give away a million dollar idea for an app. LOL

you need to work on your launch and shifting.

back in july of 08 i hit a 9.225 1/8th mile, and i trapped the 1/8 at 79mph.

here is the link to my records, and there is also a picture of my 1/4 mile time slip. i also have a video posted up on youtube of my run, http://www.dragtimes.com/Nissan-Altima- ... 13382.html

what was your 60ft time. when you get that down, every tenth of a second less in the 60ft equates to about 3 tenths of a second in the 1/4 mile time.

his launch is probably whats killing him. I've done something around a 10.1-10.2 in the 1/8 in my 2.5. If I wasnt broke i would be lower because i would be able to practice my launches better. Got a summer job though so maybe I'll be able to return to the track in the near future. plan to auto-x as well.
