1/4 mile banter for Inters - what you after?
« on: June 28, 2013, 04:31:00 pm »
So, GTI International will be here next weekend and with it being held at Shakespeare County Raceway I was wondering if it would tempt anyone to dabble on the 1/4 mile for a change?

If so what expectations have you got for times and terminal speeds?

If you do just under 14 your terminal will be about 105ish

That would be good  :happy2:

Last time at the pod I was doing a 14.1 second 1/4 mile and 99mph terminal

That's a good time with a sub 100mph terminal. You must have had a decent launch?

I might have a mooch over, should be good of the weathers good.

I'd hope for under 13.5 in my Eddy, but wouldn't even like to guess tbh!

What Stage is the Eddy? Manual or DSG?
