Half Mile Trap Guesses?

[wildabeast]

07 Civic SI Sedan with *ahem* some mods... (4 doors for more whores!)

I went to the 1/4 mile track once, (even though my car car is setup for circuit) on summer tires. Did one run EVER. Forgot to put my traction control back on after burnout.
Did a 2.65 60'. (lol took me a sec to figure out what was going on)
12.9 1/4 mile at... get this: 129mph (LOLOLOLOLOL)

So I'm guessing I'll be around 160-170mph for the 1/2mi since I wont be on stock traction control, and I've had a couple upgrades since then.

Honestly, I may tune the governor to 165mph and just leave it at that. I wouldnt feel safe otherwise unless I put on a huge wing for stability during braking.

Is anyone going to run drag radials or anything or everyone just hoping with street tires

 

[Turk]

I'm Guessin 2 somethin.

In a GTO?

 

[Sharkey]

I just hope to make it without breaking. Should be making well north of my current 700whp with a 4l80e and new turbo going in. Maybe 155+mph?

I most likely will be depnding on what M/T says they are good for

Yeah I'm dreamin.

I know it's a car that's serious as a heart attack but fuck... 200 mph in a half mile would take a fuck ton of hp. And on an unprepped surface I don't see a rwd anything hooking to get there.

I'm running drag radials, but i always run them on the street too

 

[Yaj Yak]

I'm gonna bring mine. Swap at some point. See what I can do on 18s

You guys and your 200 mph cars. Man that is going to be scary. I have a feeling when you see the end coming up you will lift before that half goes by...... Trust me I been there did this first hand. Going to be a rush.

After trying it out on street tires I'm going to run a radial. I'm going to a taller drag radial than I was running last year which mean it will be just slightly taller than my street tire so I expect mph to be pretty much the same.

I have ramp boost as well as real time traction control. Supras with a set of 17's just went 197 last week with 100whp less then me. Im just guessing esp knowing what my 1/4 trap is on lower boost.

I will most likely mounting a chute on just for this ocasion

[Sharkey]

Im in the ball park then, depending on that GTR's wieght. I should be some where in between my first and second guess

 

[The Broken Regal]

im realistically hoping for 150+ ... 160+ if you go by adding what I gain in the 1/8th
