there is no conversion. each car is different based on gearing, hp etc so a an "X" 1/8 time does not translate into a "Y" 1/4 time. sorry

well is there any way you could estimate what youd hit in the 1/4 based on what you ran in the 1/

Actually, if you take your 1/8th time and multiply it times 1.55, then you should get a close estimate to your 1/4th mile.

Yes it is a good estimate

I just might put this one in "things we've seen before "
