10.34 in the 1/8 mile

Post by GT_03 »

I went out to a local racetrack yesterday, and did some drag runs with the Vibe. It was lot of fun. Everyone from SUV's to NHRA cars were there for fun run racing days. I won some and lost some, but overall i did great. My best was 10.34 in the 1/8 mile at 66.74 mph. I beat a Grand Am GT, Neon, Cavalier, Civic SI, Accent, and Stratus. And got beat by a 5.0 Stang, Subaru SVX, and Monte Carlo SS.

I had to read your post 2 times to be sure. At first I thought your Vibe was running 10.34 in the 1/4 mile!! But 10.34 in 1/8 is lot more realistic

10.34 in the 1/8 mile = approx a 16.37 in the 1/4 mile.
