SweetS10v8

I know this is kind of out there, but its been eating me up. I recently watched the video taken of me at the strip a few years ago. I had been running 13.2s @ 107mph.

I swapped on a set of AFRs and on my first run the fuel pump died, glad I didnt run nitrous at the strip, anyways...somewhere (im guessing) between the 1/8th mile and 1000ft mark it puked.

I ran a 13.31@ 95. I lost 12MPH but only lost ~.05 of a second, and I dont have the slip anymore to tell me my 60' 1/8 time/MPH.

I sold it before I got to the track again.

Any educated guesses on a ET or MPH without any more detailed info? I told you its a strech, but I thought I might ask.

mid 12s, I am just going by the fact that an 11:1 AFR headed 350 with a solid roller should be mids at worst!

You can take your 1/8 mile ET and multiply it by 1.56 to get a very close estimate of what you would run in the 1/4.

If your track gives 1000' times you can use it to estimate a 1/4 mile time for when you make an incomplete run or have to brake at the finish line to keep from breaking out. From a previous full pass take your 1/4 mile time and divide it by the 1000' time. It's usually very close to 1.19. Take the 1000' time from the incomplete run and multiply that by the 1.19 number. Again that will give you a very close estimate on what the 1/4 mile time will be.

Slowing down at the end because of a breakdown or just letting off the throttle will decrease the mph but affects ET very little. You need to be on the brakes at the end to scrub off ET. That or you break down long before the mph timers are triggered. MPH is the indication of HP. ET depends on traction and is pretty well carved in stone in the first 1/8 mile. If you hook up off the line or get lots of wheel spin, the mph at the end will be almost the same however ET will vary greatly.
