Title: Need To Know 1/4 Time For......
Post by: KOOL-AID MAN on September 09, 2006, 03:34:48 PM
cavalier z24 that is......

haha, yeah this is lame, but i need help finding out what the 1/4 mile time is for this car, my friend owns one and seems to be certain it can run a 14.4 in the quater mile,  I would guess something closer to 15.5 to 16 seconds, i bet a case of beer on this so i just need to show him some proof, anyone have an old issue of road and track that might have this recorded in it? any help appreciated.

thanks for looking and sorry if this wasted your time.
