1/4 mile times....
 
place et mph guy year engine
17 12.901 112.000 Jared Bonaventura 1995 Stock


Ok, so, I know that my 2000 model miata is sort of a pig. And I put in that roll bar. I'll admit, it tips the scales at 2450 wet. Maybe it's that extra 200 lbs keeping my car in the 15.9 second 1/4 mile stock, while this guy ran within 0.14 seconds of MarkP.

Or, not. Seriously, who's dumb idea was this list?

well, his motor may be stock. things bolted onto it may not be.

ApexOnYou 01-23-2008 06:39 PM

I'm guessing its just a stock block too.

Zabac 01-23-2008 06:52 PM

no way will you get a bone fucking stock miata to 12.9, fuck that
what the guy is saying is probably just stock motor as in no internals, etc.

I predict with MSpnp resurgance we might see some 1.6L 11 sec miatas :magna:

AbeFM 01-23-2008 08:18 PM

Maybe with a stock bottom end, but that's a stretch. Stock displacement I could see. At least headwork and a lot of turboing. I mean, there's a 175 whp difference between a stock miata and one running in the 12's. My point about him being the next guy after mark wasn't random - if he really were that close, he'd have had to have done a similar amount of work.

The whole list was interesting, all the best times were off of miata motors, not LT-1's, etc.

Braineack 01-23-2008 08:21 PM

traction makes perfect.

Dan, that guy (Jared) is leatherface24 and he's been doing some things with his engine :dunno: but I sure would like to know.

Nah, not really... just a big turbo and 93 octane could take him there on a stock motor with some big injectors. My motor is not anywhere near stressed.

12.9 is fast to me, like anyone else with any sense, but it's not THAT difficult to reach. FWIW, there was a guy at the track here in Fayetteville, NC that was running 13.1s in a MSM with limited mods. So, in theory a 1.8 FMII/BEGi S3 or similar homebrew setup would be right there.

I hoping that my '99 with S4 will be close.

Apexonyou needs a good challenge.. I hope I can provide it.

SamS 01-24-2008 01:08 AM

Apexonyou needs to man up and drive his miata in the winter.

Haha hey I drove that shit for almost two years daily :magna:, been there and done that with this snow shit! Speaking of which it needs to stop snowing here!!

Bryce 01-24-2008 01:59 AM

Expect to see a time from me soon. And for Mike to obliterate both of ours.

AbeFM 01-24-2008 02:05 AM

"stock" is not anything (any miata) in the 12's. If it's turboed enough to take 3 seconds off your ET, it's turboed enough to mention.

And you guys and your fancy, 93 octane, supergas can all go *$&% yourselfs. I hope it snows on you/

Torkel 01-24-2008 02:26 AM

Yo Bros! Aint no sweat doing a low 12 with my sick Miata here in da Fatherland, fo sure! Got a sweet JDM wing and lambo doors for JDM traction and I have like JDM tires on my 19” JDM 2lb wheels that are like assume light and double clutching fast and furious style like mad yo!

I got to get that damn turbo soon. My car is s-l-o-w on the straight.

Zabac 01-24-2008 09:38 AM

i hope to post some times in the summer, untill then the list will be full of 12 sec miatas, lol and no room for me, haha

Arkmage 01-24-2008 10:06 AM

I should be able to get to the track next month. need to get the BEGi downpipe, clutchnet clutch, and MBC in... then tune for 12 psi. Once all that is completed, off to the races and dyno I go.

Braineack 01-24-2008 10:42 AM

my should have been close. ive wanted to do a 1/4 pull for shits and giggles.

Newbsauce 01-24-2008 11:08 AM

I've always wanted to live my life a 1/4 at a time.
