Default 1/8th mile help

*First I don't go to the track but maybe once a year*

Now logged track IAT was 109 degrees
Ran Consistent 8.1-8.3 at 91 in the 1/8th. With 2.0 60ft's. I run 345 street tires and full interior and stereo.

Any idea what this would be for a 1/4 time?

Joey that would be about a 12.75 considering the mph and et at the 1/8. Frank95z

based on your mph that could be low 12's with a really good 60'. Based on your ET that would be around a 12.6. The ET database is really helpful for comparing timeslips.

You're pulling a decent MPH in the 1/8th @ 91 so your 8.1 pass (assuming it's an 8.10 and not an 8.19) will very likely net you a 12.59 or at least within a couple hundredths of that. That's simply using a 1.55 multiplier which works decent for cars with high MPH vs their ET. The multiplier for my Camaro SS which doesn't MPH quite as well as your car works out to a 1.545 so an 8.1 turning into a 12.59 is probably a tad conversative an estimate for your car. Use a 1.55 multiplier times whatever your exact ET in the 1/8th was and you'll come pretty close to seeing what that would have turned into given the MPH capabilities your car has.
