1/8 mile time (02 EX) I went to do the 1/8 mile at Portland raceway a few days ago (first time in this car) and my best time was a 10.484 @ 67.02 MPH with a horrible R/T of 1.255... I'm not sure if this is a good time for a 02 EX coupe 5 speed with DC Sports TCS and Injen CAI. I think i've could have done better... Just gotta practice I guess |
hhmmm i dont kno how to convert 1/8 of mile to 1/4 mile but i ran a 16.0 in 1/4 mile.... |
its a decent time...just keep practicing and working on the launch, and shifting...and you'll have it down pretty soon |
<< hhmmm i dont kno how to convert 1/8 of mile to 1/4 mile but i ran a 16.0 in 1/4 mile.... >> if you got a timeslip for the 1./4 mile track, it gives your 1/8 as well. |
you cant really convert a 1/8 mile slip into a 1/4 because you are accelerating still |
Man thats WEAK... you sould at least be in 9's.. work on that reaction time K-lx |
KURUPTLX- I would LOVE to see you run a nine in a civic EX coupe, or any close to stock civic for that matter. The fact is, is that is a DAM N good time for a sohc civic with just those few bolt ons. Just today I lost to a SI on an eighth mile track. He was running consistently in the 10.2s, and he had more stuff done to it than that. I have a 2001 civic EX auto, with a magnaflow exhaust and the resonator removed, and the best I could muster was a 11.586. Now before you go talkin about that's b/c my reaction times were so slow, I'll have you know that the reaction time isn't even included in the ET, and my reaction times were in the 0.6s, EXCEPT for the time that I ran the 11.586, that was my best run, but i had a 0.915 RT. Silver02EX- dont listen to the haters, just do what you do. |
uh, i thought reaction time has nothing to do with your elapsed time |
1/8 race dun tell you nothin but ur launch time......... you cant ' jsut double the time and say you ran 1/4 |

that's a better 1/8 than the mostly stock mustang gt's and v8 t-birds I saw a couple of weeks ago (except for your r/t) |
Quote [hr]Of course it does, its took him 1.255 seconds to get started after the light turned green. Reaction time is the time from the light turning green (timer starts) to the time you get goin [hr] R/T's only affect you when trying to beat the other driver down the track. |
Right, durrr, i'm used to racing, not just runnng for times |

I think that was an excellent time. Considering the modifications you have done and track experience. I was able to pull a 1/4 = 16.156@82.97mph 1/8th = 10.402@67.86mph R/T = .668 60 ft = 2.479 Keep in mind that this was a 1986 Acura Integra with 170,000 mi and only muffler welded on back. I also missed third gear on this run. As for KurupTLX, if you had a 1/8th of a 9.x I would safely assume you were running about mid to low 15 sec passes. Anyways, keep up the good work Silver02EX! |
That is a good 1/8th mile time for a 7th Gen EX with just a few bolt-ons. Our local strip has import night on Thursdays and there are a lot more mildly modified Si's, Integras and Cavaliers running 10's than 9's Our older Civic hatchback is in the 9.80's @ 73 MPH but it has an Integra LS motor:) I haven't run the 2K1 LX, but the track will probably need an hourglass to get the ET |
did u go to PIR? is that where they're holding summer drag nights by jammin?? cause if its 1/8 then that sucks [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] |
An 1/8th mile is real racing! This enables us sohc racers to show up V8 monsters Screw the 1/4 mile, it's where real power takes over Here's something for you all! I have Custom 2 1/4 exhaust cat back & short ram intake: My Best is a 10.6 This is in between fall and winter though. I've found that weather effects times the most. Not to cold(less traction) and not to hot or humid The saying is the cooler the air the more power produced definetly true. Some stock times from my region. Mustang GT-10.1-10.4 Corvette 8.4-9.4 (different motors) Camero SS 10.0 So in other words- those are great numbers you put up! |
better than my time |
