Wanna find ur 1/4 mile time? here's a site that'll tell u basically (round about) anything you need as far as numbers go. MPH, boost, 1/8 mile time, 1/4 mile time, 60'....and much more.

another way to figure out what you would have run in the 1/4 if u only ran the 1/8 is multiply your 1/8 mile time by 1.55.

GVWR = Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
It means that is the maximum loaded weight of the vehicle should ever be at, that includes all passengers and cargo.

Make a pass down a 1/4 mile dragstrip, come down the return road, stop at the timing shack and pick up your timeslip. That is the only true way to calculate your ET and MPH. The rest means NOTHING. Estimated times and speeds mean crap, IMO. Timeslips don't lie. WJ

Well the calculator gives you an idea of what you should be running. This way here if you run a number way way off you'll know somethings wrong.
