I have a 400 \ 400 classic and going jap show Sunday and going to run up the strip for first time what are your times just out of interest and what power etc
just hope weather will be good
My friend's '98 STI Type R ran a 13.3 on his first ever drag race which was at the pod. That was with it completely standard. You should see well into the 12s maybe late 11s like the guys have already said above.
I took home a shameful 14.01 in my '03 WRX with about 250bhp, now running 297bhp/310lbs/ft but sadly won't be racing this year.

A mate in his hawk sti managed a 12.0 last year running 330/380 so you should get into the 11's with the extra bhp.
If your going for a quick time then you've got to be brutal off the line

WRX RA 1.1bar on a TD05 16g
12.7sec @ 104mph
60ft 1.733
My time slip for any doubters

Also I side step the clutch a 6000rpm on the launch
You should run mid to high 11's fella damping settings on coilovers make a big difference on the launch play about with it if you can

I would take some of these times with a pinch of salt, track conditions play a huge part.
I ran my 400+ classic there earlier this year and managed a 12.7. Wheel spin in 1st and 2nd (2.3sec 60ft)

With your power I would make provision for it.

Tyres play a big part too.
Tip for launching, when sitting on the line and the engine revs are up, ride the clutch slightly while holding the car still on the handbrake.
When the lights go green drop the wand and mash the gas
That way you load the transmission, and its a bit less harsh on it
Good luck

If you had hit a 1.6 60ft and had a clean run in second you would have been in the 11s.
