Default 1/8th to quarter conversion factor

I know I saw it in a post a while back but cant seem to find. I beleive it was 1.56 but Im not for sure I ran a 9.03 at the 1/8th last night so Im wondering what that is in the quarter.

I went to the track north of hunstville me and mjhoward went out there. His truck ran pretty good but he was having traction issues and tuning issues or something cause the damn thing kept leaning out on him. If I would have pilled it up to a 125 I could have had an 8 second pass but oh well. Is there a conversion factor for mph? Damn Im kind of pissed cause I should have switched to a 125 shot so I could have been in the 13s but I didnt realize I was that close.

Cool

Congrats and post it up and get your 14 Second Truck Club.

There is always next time and next time looks like it may be an easy jump up into the 13 Second Truck Club.

BTW I get 1.53 when I use my G-Tech runs to calculate the conversion from 1/8 to 1/4 times but I believe that XLR8NSS uses 1.57 to convert for the Fastest truck list and truck clubs. Maybe he will confirm that for you.

I thought it was 1.55, but everybody is in the same area. Good numbers.
