Default 1/8 mile times to 1/4 mile times

Alright, I took my truck to the Mooresville Dragstrip and ran 9.455 @ 80.79mph. Somebody help me and tell me what that would be in the 1/4 mile!

Thanks,
Josh Hucks

Yeah because my truck sucks on bottom end. I make up a lot of ground after the 1/8th for sure!

That would be about a 14.2 1/4mi.That's a high trap speed for your ET,sounds like your 60'times are a little off.

That's damn good! I wish my truck had some ***** out the hole, but it just doesn't. What should I do to it to help it out?

Yeah no joke you are spraying since you flew away from me about 3/4 track. Yeah The 1/8th sucks and mooresville isn't that great of a track. Sivette 02 I know who you are cause we raced last week but JBSS71, who are you cause I am at the track every now and then.
