Default Need help on 1/8th conversion...

I went to the track last night and they were strict...so I only got one 1/4 pass and the rest were 1/8ths (I've got a vert).

My 1/4 time is as follows
60' 2.093
330 5.661
1/8 8.541
MPH 85.67
1000 11.041
1/4 13.162
MPH 106.66

My best 1/8th (1000 actually...before they threw my out )
60' 2.035
330 5.579
1/8 8.450
MPH 85.97
1000 10.944
I hit the brakes hard to try to get back into the 14's...unfortunately...it wasn't enough!
1/4 13.330
MPH 78.73
My best time previous to tonight is in my sig. So...what do you think my 1/4 would have been? I was hoping to get into the 12's....and I think it would have been damn close.......
