0-60 Calculation

[69CamaroRacer]

is it possible to calculate 0-60 from a 1/4 mile time ?

I run a 12.2 @ 112 with a 1.68 60ft

Your 60 foot time is great, so your problably looking at mid-3s.

Google returned a bunch of links. I found this chart at LT1tech...

2.3 second 60' time = 35.5 mph @60' = 7.0 second 0-60 time
2.2 second 60' time = 37.1 mph @60' = 6.5 second 0-60 time
2.1 second 60' time = 38.9 mph @60' = 5.9 second 0-60 time
2.0 second 60' time = 40.9 mph @60' = 5.2 second 0-60 time
1.9 second 60' time = 43.0 mph @60' = 4.6 second 0-60 time
1.8 second 60' time = 45.5 mph @60' = 4.0 second 0-60 time
1.7 second 60' time = 48.1 mph @60' = 3.4 second 0-60 time
1.6 second 60' time = 51.1 mph @60' = 2.9 second 0-60 time
1.5 second 60' time = 54.5 mph @60' = 2.2 second 0-60 time
1.4 second 60' time = 58.4 mph @60' = 1.5 second 0-60 time
1.36 second 60' time = 60.0 mph @60' = 1.36 second 0-60 time
1.3 second 60' time = 62.9 mph @60' = 1.2 second 0-60 time
1.2 second 60' time = 68.1 mph @60' = 1.1 second 0-60 time
1.1 second 60' time = 74.3 mph @60' = 0.9 second 0-60 time
1.0 second 60' time = 81.8 mph @60' = 0.7 second 0-60 time


I don't know about the accuracy of it.

This site - http://www.wallaceracing.com/0-60_equation.php - uses your 1/8 mile mph/ET to calculate 0-60.

When my C5 had a Vortech blower on it @ 6psi, I ran 7.0@102 in the 1/8 with a 1.66 short time. The Wallace Racing link says I ran 0-60 in 2.42 seconds and that chart I posted says 2.9-3.4 seconds.

Yeah I think that one on LT1tech is a bit strong. I've done the math on my car and my dads, we both get high 1.2's and I figured it ~1.5 seconds.

I like the link better.

I mostly just wanted to figure if I was every going 60+ with the front wheels off the ground, that's just crazy to think about. I was clicking off 60 ft wheelie, almost on the bumper 1.28's all of one night... Talk about fun.

Hey Travis, what is your 60 ft time on street tires?

[69CamaroRacer]

Hey Chris.. not sure on street tires.. maby 2.0-2.1

[130fe]

Travis, question was meant as a joke :poke: . Since you never want to run it without your slicks............

[69CamaroRacer]

chris i will run you anytime you want..:6gears: :1st:

[130fe]

You might be able to get me on the track (straight line), but at least mine will start and continue to run with out any problems on any given day :lmao: . Going out of town next week for about a week and a half, give me a call when you get a chance.
