Hi everyone.
i had my car out to the track a few weeks ago and i ran a best of 7.80 with no exhaust and i was wondering if anyone knows how to do the conversion to quarter mile.
last night i tryed my Gtec pro out with the slicks on and full exhaust and i made 4 runs with it and my best time was a 12.79 at 112 mph. and my next 2 best were 12.80 @111 12.90 @109 and the worst pass was i dident rev it up enuff and it bogged and i pushed the cluch back in and let it out again and still ran a 13.03 at 103mph.
so anyways i was just wondering what a 7.80 at 88 mph converts to in the 1/4 mile.
any help would be great.
thanks Ken.

i believe its something like time x 1.54= approx quarter. There are calcs all over the internet.

Ummmm this is probably a dumb question, and I'm not trying to sound like a jacka$$, but . . . . why don't you take it to a 1/4 mile track?

This should do the trick.
The exact calculation is prett huge and requires NASA to fire up the old tape drives... but you get the idea

thanks for the info.
7.80 converts to a 12.25 to a 12.39
im very happy with that.
i thought i would be somewhere in the mid to high 12s.
thanks again.:thumbup:
