A 14 second car is a fast road car. Most people think a V8 falcondoor is fast and they are lucky to break into the 15's. A Standard WRX is lucky to make a mid 14. My 28 weighs about the same as yours, makes 150kw at the wheels and would be lucky to break into the 13's.
I guess it's a case of the old "My car makes 200kw at the wheels.....Oh I haven't put it on a dyno yet but thats what a mate said it would have. Yeah it would have to do an 11 second 1/4 with that sort of power.

instead of just say 'i be lucky to pull blah blah blah....' why dont you all just come out to wsid, run your car, get your ticket and have some fun
i think you and Nark are just being modest about your cars and not wanting to have such high expectation just incase you get disappointed. i was like that just before i ran my car aswell, based on info i found my car to run 14.5-15.0 from factory, so given my cars 15yrs old and my skills arent up to it i estimated a 15.5s. couldnt be happier when i pulled 14.9s
anything is possible, as my car on lastest run did a 14.6s, dynoed at 94kw, weighs approx 1150kg (1260kg with me in it)
so yeah, have a bit of confidence in yourself.
though i do agree with you too many people these days are just pulling numbers out of magazines and racing with their mouth
