My 1st time racing the Max

RT: .636
60' 2.361
330: 6.553
1/8 10.014
mph: 71.41

I have a 97 auto with an intake.
Temp: 45
Humidity: 57%
Head wind strong enough to keep a flag farily stiff (it never went limp the whole night.

closest perfect rt was a .499 and numerous 5.7's
best mph was 71.50
best 60' was 2.03

I'm new to the max so I dont know how this compares to the rest of the maxima's out there.

What would this time covert to in the 1/4 mile and how do you get that?

About a 15.6. Multiply your 1/8 mile time by 1.55 to 1.57 to get an approximation of what you'd run. That time you ran is about average.

Nice launches. That 2.03 60' is fantastic.
