What mph do you guys run when you are doing 5.30 in the 1/8th mile?

It should depend on if it's NA or power adder quite bit I'd think. We used to run an N/A car 1/4 mile that did the 1/8 in 5.0 at 138 mph. 1.14 60'. I think most turbo cars would have a softer leave but with more speed once it got to the 1/8.

Much of your question can/will be answered by your 60'. If you're 60' are slow, you're mph will be high as you're getting a run at the finish line. If your 60' numbers are good, you don't get that "run" and the mph numbers will be lower. In other words, there is no "set in stone" mph for a 5.30 pass as there's more than one way to make a 5.30 pass.
