Wink 1/8th mile converted to 1/4 mile?

Is there anyway to get an estimation on what my 1/4 mile time would be off an 1/8th mile pass? Last time out I ran a 9.66 @ 73mph in the 1/8th. It spun I'd say about 20ft or so and was in full street weight. Tailgate down (not off), 3/4 tank of gas (regular 87), spare tire, etc. Any ideas at all? Too bad the truck is like a snail taking off.......but then again its pretty much stock

multiply by about 1.58 for a ROUGH estimate. OR go to the fastest truck list on here and get some comparison. Realize the cars do a lot better in the upper half than us.....
