what does an 8.40 1/8th mile time approximately equal in the 1/4?

8.4*1.56 = 13.104 in the quarter.

The number isn't 100% exact but it's close enough for a guess. The only way to really know what it will do in the 1/4 is to race it.

You might run 13.0x or possibly 12.9x. You might also run 13.3's.

 

I am at the breaking point with Redturd. I cannot bracket race it because I don't know what it will run from one round to the next.

First tt....... 11.80
second tt... 11.92

Put all the numbers in my ET Predictor and came up with an 11.84
dial, so I dial 11.85.

First round 12.42, yes 12.42!! Jeez... I thought the .12 difference in the first two tt was bad!

This computer is killing me... what do I want to do, have it REPROGRAMMED for OPEN loop ALL the time? How do you stay consistant, assuming traction not being a factor? How does your computer remain CONSTANT?

TIA!!

 

I know there is no way to be 100% accurate but I was just looking for an idea. I couldn't remember what the factor was said to multiply by 1.5,1.56, or 1.6. Thanks.

I use 1/8 mile time x 1.55, but 1.54 and 1.56 may be more accurate depending on your particular vehicle. It's just a guess anyway...

Hink, 1/10 is difficult, 4/10's is a problem. No tire spin? No lifter noise? No tranny/TC slippage?

Where was the loss? 60'? 330-660? What about the mph? Fluke with the clocks? That is too much of a change without some basis for it. Something get sucked into a filter? Need more info...
