<< Lots of R/T's have 1/4 time slips. Mine seems to be among the slowest.
Bone stock with 1,500 mi it ran 16.2 @ 84mph. July 2 HOT!! After some
mods and in early October it ran 15.1 @ 90mph. I have seen posts from
other R/T's running in the upper 14's, bone stock. It relly depends on
the individual truck/driver and track/alt.temp.hum. Where are you and
what track would you be running on? Any mods? Alan S.

To put things in proper perspective and for comparison purposes, those who
post their times may want to add the 60 ft. time, since it tells if there was
a traction or bog problem, etc. at the start. Roughly, for the average street
vehicle, a 60' time of 2.00 is pretty good. Another rule of thumb is that for
each 1/10 improvement, the 1/4 mile time should improve by 1 1/2 tenths.
