I went to the drag strip for the 1st time today, but it was a 1/4 mile. Based on my results, when I got an 1/8 mile time of 8.8xx my 1/4 mile time was 13.4xx. It's not bad. I did 4 runs, all with VDC off and in manual mode (paddle shifters). I believe this is the best way to do it for an auto. Leaving VDC on isn't going to give you any benefit for a drag race and shifting with paddles is definitely quicker than normal auto mode. You did pretty good, but I hope you get the time you're aiming for next time
