best quarter mile times

[p fandango]

I've only done the 1/4 twice.... but got a terminal if 100mph give or take a tiny fraction, but got a crap time if 15.003 seconds,

what time would be a good time to aim for if your terminal is 100mph ?

I'm thinking... sub 14.5?

it doesn't quite work like that mate. I've ran a 14.557@99.1mph, but a mate of mine with a V8 Dax Rush has got a 13.100@98mph

Sure, correct me if I'm wrong tho - Isn't a dax RWD/4WD and lightweight?

was just looking for some idea what to aim for in a FWD volvo without any weight saving mods.

yeh its RWD, i was just trying to point out that terminal speed isn't linked to the time

my 14.557 was done with full interior & the old 15g, i hadn't even ran it up the strip with the 19t left alone the stripped interior (so hoping for a big difference when i hit the strip lol)

[PaulZX]

My old 850 made a 13.9 @100.76mph....

It's the initial acceleration that gets the good time... terminal speed is "almost" irrelevant... hamish has hillclimbers that top out at under a ton, and still get phenomenal times coz they top out before they're halfway down the track....

That thing is gonna fly if you've stripped the interior and have a 19T! what are you aiming for ?

yeh got quite a few other things fitted since my last 1/4mile (exhaust bypass, launch control, full throttle gearchange, short shift, ME7 inlet manifold, S60R exhaust manifold, 19t & 297kg removed lol) so really don't know what to expect. My only real aim is to beat my bro's 13.8 (Mitsi VR4), but i'd really like to be into the 12's

Got to be in the 12's with that mate, is it going to be done by the summer?

i'm not sure about the summer but really hope to get her back on the strip this year, Flame & Thunder is our regular event (Novemeber at Santa Pod) so thats my main target. In theory she doesn't need much (windscreen, door cards, rear bulkhead & get the engine running) & she'll be usable so could easily hit the track before then, may not be MOT'd but i know someone with a recovery truck. I've got alot more plans (some expensive) but i can always do them at a later date

I would have thought maybe mid to high 15s mate, but the only way to know for sure is to put it down the strip yourself!
