My car test software says I'm capable of 15.48 @ 84.6mph
I've used this on many of my cars and it's proven to be pretty accurate. Does'nt mean I'll run that my first time out... but does indicate that I have the *potential* of running those ETs.
btw, it says a bone stock 94 splash 4x4 (4.0L) can run a 10.6 @ 63mph in the 1/8th.. and a 17.09 @ 75mph in the 1/4 (in 4x4 mode the whole way.. slower in 2wd)

I think lanching on pavement in 4WD could be a tricky thing. You will have to slip the clutch to keep the rpm up in order to get off the line well. I know it is difficult to launch a pickup with 2WD without a lot of wheel spin but with enough practice and proper setup, I think it would be better than launching in 4WD. That is unless you don't mind burning up the clutch.

I have a auto tranny. It's a no brainer for me. And I'm going dead straight too so the loads are pretty consistant. Don't really fell I'm hurting anything. Maybe adding a little undue stress to the transfer chain.. but oh well. They make replacements.
I go WOT and after I roll about 5 ft.. I just turn it off. It does'nt launch as hard as my lightning. But I'd say it'll cut a good 1.9 or 2.0 60ft.

Ideal stall is 3400. Stock stall is only 2500 which hurts 60ft by 0.16 seconds. Mathmaticaly speaking that is.

There is no way in the real world you'll be in the tens with only 63mph.
11.1-11.2s are the norm for only 63mph.
My guess would be a 60ft in the 2.0 region. So it might be possible with slicks but on a normal track night on street tires I would bet against that by a lot.
I have a 88 CRX that only traps 64 in the 1/8 and it runs consistent 11.0s
