MPH in the quarter?

[vettekilr]

I've been looking at other post's,and I see that people running 106-109 are running lower 12s,my fastest mph was 107-12.77,does that mean I should get lower 12s.My 60 time is 1.8 with drag radials.I have the stock turbo still,maybe thats the diff.If anyone can help me figure out why my mph are high for my times let me know,also if you guys could post your times and mph that would help.THANX

Your mph really isn't high for your times, given a 1.8 60 ft. If you had run a 1.65 60ft your ET would have been in the low 12.5's @ 107.

To get low 12's with a 1.8 60 ft you need to run 110+ in the 1/4 mile.

People you see running low 12's at 106 have something limiting their mph like a loose converter, high rolling resistance slicks or short tires. They are also 60 footing quicker than 1.8 seconds.

THANKS UNGN,
That makes sense,I appreciate your time!

My ET and mph is directly dependant on my 60's. If my 60's are 1.7 then my ET is 12.5-12.7 @ 106-107. If I get a 60' in the 1.6 range then the ET is 12.2-12.1

Keep working on the 60's and everything else will prolly get better..

I ran yesterday at the track and my best time was 12.19 at 111.09mph with a 1.83 60ft time in ET drags. It's just a mattter of your combo and how much boost you are topping out at. With a bit more work and practice you'll get better it always does. Keep working at it and you'll be happy I know I am

I ran at Morocco, IN, in the quarter, but the rest of my runs are 1/8 mile. My mph seems low. The following runs were TC lock and 28x9 MT slicks:

60'/eighth/mph/quarter/mph
1.75/7.94/85.0/12.58/105.4
1.73/7.95/85.2/12.57/106.1

Gee, my mph sees low: 1.8 60', 12.77@103.3 . Using the simple hp calculators I got 319hp or 348hp (depending on which method)for my 3605 with driver weight. Does that mean somethings amiss? I thought I'd mph around 105 or so.
