Its uses gps for 1/4,its pretty damn close I did like 6 runs and every one of the was very close.I started in the same spot and it would end me in the same spot everytime.yea I needs gears bad gettting out the hole sucks, but when I hit around 3000 thing starts sceamn. 0-80 is kind of scary in a jack up box on a 1 lane back road.hahaa o I know its shorting me the front end is way different on a 95 so its taking way less off,I'm going to do some more seaching and see if I can find the spec for 1st gens.I really like this app its pretty good and Sport97 your first mistake was using an iphone!!!!!DROID
Ah ok well being that its GPS then maybe it's not so far off after all. Yeah gears are going to make all the difference getting out of the hole.

so been looking at other people 1/4 runs and most people in a stock ex are running around 18 but they are way quicker in the 60ft and 1/8.like around 2. in the 60ft and around 10 in the 1/8.witch makes sense because of my 33 and gears.i found a hosepower calculator on super six and put in my info to see how close my phone app was or just to see what it would say and at 4600lb and 18.1 1/4 it came out to be 153 at the wheels and 199 at the crank.so the app said 182 at the crank and 158 at the wheels so im shocked that they are both pretty close but the real fun comes when i regear.if i regear to close to stock,im doing 4.88s with my 33 for now.so that should help with my 60ft and 1/8.taking that it would put me near stock that would mean about 2sec off what i run now.so if i put 16.5 into the horepower calculator i get 202 at the wheels and 263 at the crank.or if i go the full 2 sec off it said 221 wheels and 288 at the crank i was shooting for 200hp at the wheels when i built this so i hope thats not that far off.any rate just wanted to throw this out there and see how many people call BS but my gears are going in very soon,just got to figure the brake lines out and break them in and i will be going to the dyno and hopefully getting tuned also.
o yea this is with out my NOS if any one was wondering,thats going to be at least a 100 shot!!!!
