Your N/A Quarter Mile Times

What's your fastest quarter mile times (N/A only)? I know they're not meant to go in a straight line but I was just curious.

I know your wanting actual times, but it will vary between 14.5(very good) and 15+ seconds depending on the driver.

Quarter mile is a poor measure of true performance. It is so drastically affected by the launch, tires, etc.

Some cars will have really good 1/4 mile times but not so amazing trap speeds....AWD cars, like evos will literally fly off the line and beat some cars that would have taken them if they raced from a roll.

I think 14.9 is what car and driver lists for the R3.

No offense but you suck at drag racing. If you look at the timeslips thread you will see me and other ran mid 14's bone stock.

I think people are failing to realize that the OP didn't specify "RX-8s".

Feel free to post your time slips as long as A) you were driving, and B) it is naturally aspirated
