I would say so. I remeber back in the day when the SI was tested by car and driver They got something like 15.7 at 87. I haven't been to the track in a long time but out of a fwd car I would say a 15.6-15.9 would net around an 87. It depends on 60ft. and traction also. Look at some heavely boosted supras...12.1@141+.

haha told you that you ran 16's :fawk:
haha back on topic...a 15.5 should probably be a bit lower than an 88 mph trap. My friend matt ran a 15.1 @ 79-80 with a 2.2X 60 foot and i doubt a 1-2 mph lower trap is gonna drop you from a 15.1 to a 15.5.
a 87 trap should be good for about a 15.4-15.5 with a 2.2X 60 foot. With a 2.4X 60 foot it's probably like a 15.7-15.9

Maybe you are dumping it, you gotta feather the clutch, and don't step on the gas all the way at once. Put the gas 50-75% down and let the clutch out and then work your way from there.

h: i get to "excited":naughty: waiting to the shit to turn green..ive learned to feather after though...its different than a street race b/c i can lauch at 4600K and spin still have some traction....im sure i can pull a 2.35 or so....if i do that...what will i be around a 15.5?
