Fastest dragstrip 1/4mi with built scooter

Post by burnt_toast »

Going out to all the dragstrip guys, what's the fastest 1/4mi E.T. you've hit?

My personal best was mid 17sec with a fine tuned 72cc Corsa setup.

Reason I'm asking is I have a spare 120cc DIO motor that needs some work but has tons of potential. I've been wanting to throw it into something for a long time now and now toying with the idea of either selling it, or building up a 1/4mi dedicated drag bike. BUT only if it will be possible to hit some ridiculous times with it, that would make it worth it.
projects galore :nerd:

I think Tru ran some 14's but we all mainly run the 1/8th mile tracks as its way better suited for scooters

Thanks guys. all except maddog who just mouths off dribble :blah: completely useless and usually :bs:

The frame I plan to swap this in is a Kymco ZX50, stripped as much as possible, but still pretty heavy. Wonder if Tru used nitrous on those 14sec runs..

If I can reach, even touch 14s with all motor that would be extremely awesome. But if I gotta jury rig some laughing gas that's all good too :thumbwink:
