Quarter mile estimates, please.

Now that ive got some races underneath me, and I know what my car fares up compairably, I want to know what my car runs aprox in the quarter mile.

Mods are in my sig. Also modded my qjet to make the secondaries open up fully.

Beat: 2000 something chevy turbo diesel, beat him hard.
Beat: mid 90's Eagle Talon TSI, he kept up better than the turbo diesel but I still beat him badly.
Beat: honeycomb 4th gen TA, ls1? I beat him harder than the Eagle Talon
Lost: 6.0 GTO, His rear bumper got about 3 feet on my front bumper, up to 60mph.

Mid-Low 14's?

What would it take for me to hit 13's?

I am thinking that the GTO runs high 12's to low 13's. dont quote me on that, so if you are behind by the 60 MPH mark I would say you are right about the low 14's. Good job with those other kills though.

A car has so much more meaning to you when you replace its engine.
