Default Estimated quarter mile time?

If you went to the track, what do you think think your ride would run in the quarter?

If you have actually run it, what did you run?




Just curious

the stratus ran 16.1..it ran a16.1 a while later with some mods, but i wasnt racing, and i was drunk, and forgot that i had a jack, tools, the system, etc in the trunk, so it was carrying an extra 250lbs or so. [:@]

the mirada ran mid 12s.

the bmw ran low 16s...

My old grand cherokee ran a 19 flat @ 60mph... thanks to the bigger tires and lift. It didn't even make it to the highway speed limit. I only raced it as a joke, but while I was waiting in line to get my number this guy walked up to me asking about all I had done to it. You could tell he didn't have a clue about cars... there were classic camaros and and chevelles all over the place and he decides to look at a grand cherokee. But anyway, a few days earlier I had memorized that quote from the movie Dazed and Confused just in case this situation should arise... So I told the guy "It's got a 4.11 posi trac out back, 750 double pumper, Edelbrock intake, it's bored over .30, 11 to 1 pop up pistons, turbo jet, 390 horse power, we talking some f**kin muscle." His jaw dropped and said "WOW. Can I see the engine?" So I popped the hood and when he saw my straight 6, he flipped me off and walked away. Good times.
