Here is a clip of member Padre's car at the track the 1/8 mile with street tires, without stalling it up, Padre tells us it just stands still if he stalls it up. Hot humid day in GA

can anyone estimate what that would be in terms of 1/4mile. or atleast give me some stock 1/8 mile times to compare it too. im just used to speaking in terms of 1/4mile

Sounded like the announcer said 8.29 @ 85mph! Bclark just posted his all stock M6 1/8 mile time of 9.0 @ 80mph!!!!

Nice video. That Goat sounds awsome and looks good going down the strip. It would look even better smoking a Z06, Cobra, ect in the video!!!

an [email protected] miles in the 1/8 would roughly translate to around 13 flat in the 1/4 mile.

Yes the time was 8.2 @ 85 that pass the best mph was 86mph on 19 inch rims for the day, stock autos go 77 to 78mph from what we have seen in the 1/8. The car will go 7's in the 1/8 with the car stalled up and DR's on the back that short time was a 1.98 not that good. As we all should know different tracks will post different times due to altitude, humidity and a number of other factors so we will see what it does in the 1/8 and 1/4 in Texas, Padre is on a road trip with the car right now. We will have our 510 package 6 speed car at the ¼ track on Tuesday witch will naturally run more mph but most likey not as good of an ET on the same tires.

I was pretty pleased with the runs - pretty consistent 8.2's at 86 (I posted this also in another thread). By my calculations, that would translate to a 12.7 at 106 (and I have hundreds of timeslips which all validate the typical 1.55xET and 1.24xMPH for 1/8th to 1/4) under the same conditions. I was also cutting 1.9 60's on street tires, which I was pleased with because my WRX under a full-stall AWD launch at 4100rpm could only do 1.8's.

But bench racing is bench racing . I hope to get to the the track Friday in Texas. I've been dodging hail all week - hopefully it'll clear up tomorrow. Wish me luck.

That's one of the better drag videos I've seen of the GTO.

Looks like it'll be Alamo Dragway in San Antonio. (Ennis is closed for renovations).

Pray the weather holds.

Nope. It was a mess. So instead I'm half-way to El Paso. Best chance for more vids are at the autocross there on Sunday and the heads-up racing at the West Texas Airport that night. Definitely picked the wrong time for a vacation in West Texas, but no worries, the drive is fun.
