How accurate is the 1/4 time on the interceptor???

 

I wouldn't use it any differently than a dyno run. Just use is at a baseline. Why not go to the track and see how it compares? My guess is that it would be within .5 seconds though.

 

tell us what it says you ran, and we'll tell you how accurate it is

 

It isn't very accurate cause it doesn't compensate for tire spin.

 

haha I ran a 14.2 @ at 83 but i had to slow down at 83 mph to stop a light so i didn't actually finish the 1/4. So my time would have been better if i had kept going heh. I was just curious tho how accurate it was.

 

ummmmm, stock SS/SC in a quarter mile are in the mid to high 90s mph. and with your mods i would venture to say maybe over 100 mph is where you should be. i'd estimate high 13s for you.

that is of course if your are a decent driver.

 

I was just at the track last night. On the street, it compensates non for tire spin and says that I run 13.3s at 109. Last night when I went, I muster a couple of 13.6s (with 2.3 60's, Im working on it. Lol) and 105 / 106 trap speeds. I actually turned the interceptor on for one run and I found it was pretty accurate when there was no tire spin, right on for the time and 1MPH away for the trap (It showed higher)

 

I had to slow down before the 1/4 was done... thats why its a 14.2 @ 83mph

 

if you dont spin the tires it will be perfect...assuming you run a stock tire size.

 

^^^ DING DING
but you also have to have FULL weight of the car+driver and the altitude correct and saved to it.. it told me i was running a 13.7 @107 at sea level and like a 14.1@104+ average at 2700 ft altitude.. it's right on if there's no spin.. but at the local track round here spinning is common for FWD.. but hey i took out a crew of g35's..
