13 Seconds Question.

[Smokie]

Are there any members out there that have run the 1/4 mile in less than 14 seconds: N/A, No Nitrous, No gears, No converter ????

If you have, how are you doing it ???? :D

Hummm, something unusual triggered this question, I wonder what?

Look at the timeslip database and you will be able to get some infomation about which members have sub-14 second N/A times. If you are asking what does it take to get these times the answer is, converter, exhaust, tune, gears, and cold air. Track condition will play a role also.

Javier, Claude and I can help you out on that, just a phone call away.

Back when all I had was a tune, I could do no better than 14.63.

I don't think anyone has gotten into the 13's with just a chip and tune. Even with race fuel and tires, I don't think it's feasable.

Cruz, if i catch it right, is limitations were no gears and no transmission work.

What would be your answer with your engine mods: PHP filter and spacer, pullies, meziere, complete kooks kit with stock tails, plugs, 180stat and flash or equivalent mild tuning with pump gaz (no behind the crank work or suspension mods, good street tires) ?

[Smokie]

I am not asking what it takes to get to 13's. I asked if any MM. ran a sub 14 second 1/4 mile naturally aspirated, no converter, no gears, no nitrous, no strokers, stock internals.

The timeslip page in my opinion represents a portion of our members that have posted, I am not there; so I am sure there are others that have ran and are not listed.

Again I don't mean you have to have a stock MM. to be included in my question, I highlighted the criteria I am looking for..all else is fair game....I think is possible by the way....well see....I been wrong before.:D

[Smokie]

Snowbird understands.....completely.:D

Noted in your first post, Javier, and IMHO, no, it's not possible.

But, y'all down in F L A are quite the crafty bunch, so, I think I'll sit this one out and wait for the punch line.

Teach me?

Yes!

I ran 13.8's prior to transmission work.

[Smokie]

Yes!

I ran 13.8's prior to transmission work.You ran 13.8's with stock gears and stock converter?

[snowbird]

Yes!

I ran 13.8's prior to transmission work.Thanks Cruz. Thats great and would put it on par with an advertised stock 2001 mustang cobra, 5m, 3700lbs = 13.8's @ 102 mph. Thats my "stage 1 goal"!

[snowbird]

Snowbird understands.....completely.:DI think i understood ... completely. See the answer of Cruz which is, by the way, your answer too. Yes it's feasible.

I agree with SergntMac and feel it's not possible to run sub 14 seconds time without spending about 3 thousand dollars or more. I am not going to wait for a lesson, because I am trying to reach my next goals, good luck.

But if it were possible, it wouldn't make you unhappy, right ?
It won't be 85* down here forever....even FLA drops into the 60's....eventually. :whistle:

[CRUZTAKER]

....even FLA drops into the 60's....eventually. :whistle:It sure does!

Isn't that when you folks break out the heavy wool jackets, hats and gloves....? :lol:
