13.8@108
13.8@108
Via Interceptor. lol. I ran it today for the first time, my 0-60 times were 5.61 and I believe my 1/8 mile was 8.88 or something I cant remember that but the quartermile was really a 13.8@108 what do you guys think this means in a real track?

The interceptor assumes you get perfect launches with no hop/spin. When I ran a 13.4 at the track the gauge told me I ran a 12.6. Cant remember what trap speed the gauge gave me. So if you can launch the car 100% perfect, you can get that 13.8@108, but you probably won't as its almost impossible not to get any spin/hop.
If the Interceptor is anything like a G-tech you have to subtract 5MPH and add.5 second to get you in the ballpark. At the track your speed is averaged in the last part of the track(I think it's the last sixty feet?) and on the Gtech it takes the highest reading. In the end you will have to go to the track to get a real ET.

Yes, I was using the latest version of the Gtech and even the better one that you could download the info to your computer. It's a good tool to get you ready for the strip but don't expect to run as good a time as the Gtech indicates at a real strip or you will be dissapointed.
We ran it on three different cars and the MPH was 5-7 MPH slower at the track. Et was was .2-.7 faster than at the track. This was on a 12,13 and 14 second car. The faster cars were closer to actual ET.
