Default 1/8th mile= ???? in the 1/4
Have a question hoping you guys can help me out. If I am running 7.8 in the 1/8th mile. What would be my time in the 1/4? Just very curious as I have never been on a 1/4 mile track.

there is more 1/8 mile tracks than 1/4 mile out here in DFW. Most people i talked to said all they have ran was 1/8th mile

Nice!!!! Thanks guys. I have been on a quarter mile track in my 68 but never in my SS. I will try Ennis this friday. I am doing a rearend swap and hopefully it will all be done before then. Low 12's isn't bad.
