1/4 Mile Time Slips Post

Seems like a good way for all us 1/4 Junkies to keep track/help each other out....
Me: 280lbs geared up.
Bike: 00 strapped, bottom hole, 6 over, 16/44, Yosh RS3 full.
Location: St Louis, 95 degree day, ridiculously humid.
R/T .358
60' 1.666
330' 4.334
1/8 6.594
1/8MPH 108.46
1000' 8.569
1/4 10.256
1/4MPH 133.04
 
Not bad for a big guy,what gear and rpm are at going through the traps with that gearing? I have a friend that is close to the same set-up as you I beleive he is at 16-42 though and was running around the same times.
 
That's pretty good for someone your size. I'm 195 lbs, and run similar times (although I'm running 100% stock... not even a full system).
 
Did you notice the difference between the MPH there and Benton??

Thanks for posting your results. The 133 trap speed makes me feel better about my weak bike. You might want to figure the DA for when your were running. It sounds as if it was really poor. And, I bet you are exhausted if you were wearing leathers for any length of time in those conditions.
I'd kill for your 60' time and or any 10 sec run, let alone a low 10 sec run.
 
Well, Brown has seen mine, but for something to do, here is mine.  The bike is completely stock except for 16/42, lowered to the middle hole in rear, strapped front, and an airshifter.  I weigh 250 nekkid, about 260-270 in gear.  

I wasn't getting very good 60's, and the ones I did get that were great, I managed to let off to keep from getting booted

Here are my two best

RT      .081         .017
60'     1.745      1.700
330    4.457      4.382
1/8     6.694      6.627
mph   110.08     109.35
1000  8.643       8.591
1/4    10.301      10.272
mph   135.37       131.60

I find it odd that the fastest ET had a slower mph.  The headwind maybe?

I think I am due for another clutch already.  The handle has about one inch of throw before it is all the way out.  It grabs hard and does not slip, but is hard to launch.

It's your 60' that lowered the time...
