My R53 1/8th mile runs

Went to the local track to take advantage of the cold weather.
Alta intake and stock runflats. I was amazed at the increase in traction I got just from doing a short burn out. Didn't think it matter much with street tires.

Weather 47-53 degrees

Best 2 runs
60ft: 2.4219
330ft: 6.3947
Et: 9.6730
Trap: 73.49

60ft: 2.4291
330ft: 6.4257
Et: 9.6816
Trap: 74.21

I'm surprised at your times, if you can get that 60 foot down your MPH says low 9's.

well I guess thats something to look foward to next time I go to the track. Hopefully will have some good tires on by then. How do these times compare to other minis with similar mods. Faster, slower, or right on the money?

Here are mine for comparison:

In a 1/4 mile, I'd guess those runs would be good for high 14's. Nice work!

lol. my subaru ran a 9.6 at 73 mph when i took it to mooresville, and a 14.9 @ 94 mph

i was a crappy driver then. i should have been able to do low to mid 14s. :(
i still need to get the mini down to the strip to see what it'll do
