1/4 mile time for a 90' LX 5.0?

17 Apr 2017

Hey guys, I’ve been prepping my fox for a day at the track and was curious of everyone’s times with a similar set up. Street racing isn’t for me so the track is where I plan to finally see what she can do.
Mods are:
E303 cam
3.73 Gears
Cobra upper and lower intake from a ‘93
(Automatic transmission)
Rear seat delete
Power steering delete, ac delete, radio delete
Caster camber plates
Tires are okay.. just enough tread to pass track inspection
Let me know any advice and information yall have, anything helps!

The autos ran mid fifteens from stock. With your light mods, I’d say high fourteens. That’s assuming enough traction, of course.

Wow I was hoping for a low 14 or maybe even a lucky 13.9 as a starting point but I believe you may have a more accurate assumption

Oh yeah, I feel it lag a bit every now and then. And sure I may have forgot a few “mods”, but I don’t think it’s things that would total a half second differences or anything major.

Traction is what a Fox needs the most. Good suspension and tires can drop a full second off a stock Fox.

Since it’s auto, I’d say mid to high 14s. Depends on if it hooks up or not with those tires…

That’s probably pretty close especially on the street tires I have. Thanks

Yeah traction is gonna be the key. At bandimere speedway i ran 15 flat but my tires just werent hooking. I kept spinning through first gear. Mine is a manual trans.
