Well Ladies and Gents I proved this morning that our cars can exceed the speed of 90 MPH in a quarter mile. I reset the trip at the stop light and I took video of my quarter mile run. I created a party foul by forgetting to turn off my over speed setting of 90 MPH. My over speed sign turned on at .21 miles (See attached Pic) @ 14.0 seconds. I reached 92 MPH in 15.000 seconds. Since I couldnt time when I hit .25 its hard to say what my 1/4 mile was exactly but It was definitly in the 14's based on counting the frames per second per .01 of a mile after 90 MPH in my video. I cant wait to the tracks to open in Mid April.

when i did my 90.19 @ 15.499 my car was bone stock.

don't judge what your doing according to what your gauges say cuz they ain't accurate.
hit the track and see what you'll do

i'm looking for what to my times this year with my intake,exhaust, and gt lsd installed. I not getting my hopes up but they should be improved

lol,

I thought this thread was gonna be about how you got thrown in jail and your car impounded for DRIVING 92 in a 15mph zone. Ouch!
:drink:

Glad that was not the case.... never did that pull; should try it sometime.

Sweet. No offense, but 15 seconds to 92 seems pretty slow to me, I'm assuming your stock? Maybe its just me....idk.

About right for the V6 cars (which is where this thread originated) ;)

I plan on taking my car to the track this spring. The earlier the better for my time and trap speed. During Cleveland's hot humid summers my iPhone Apps (Dynolicious & Pocket Dino) have me at 7.2 0-60 & 15.3 quarter miles. In the cool spring and winter temps. I can do sub 6.9's 0-60 and VERY high 14's to 15 flat. I expect to see low 15's when I go this spring (15.1-15.2). The track heat is going to warm up the engine bay I would imagine. I will keep you all posted though.

do you have any mods done to your car or is it just stock?

not do be a downer but good luck getting high 14's - a 15 flat in your car if it's stock. I ran my 15.499 in late september where it starts to cool down lots where i live. My car was bone stock but i was running my staggered 20" wheels with 245's and 285's. I probably would of been faster if i had my stock 18's.

i have since modded my car and eager to see what times i can pull. even with my mods i'm hopeing to get a 15 flat or high 14 but who know i could get a better time

Its Stock. I have done the lower panel mod and added a K&N drop in but not all that sure how much difference that would make over a bone stock one. maybe .100 of a second who knows. I will be sure you let you all know how my track run goes.

My car seems to either run awesome or it feels like the engine bay is heat soaked and it runs like crap. That difference is 14.9's-15 flats or 15.4 per my dynolicious or pocket dyno iphone apps.
