1/8 mile time?
I just ran for the first time with nitrous and my drag radials...i had a .191 60' .574 RT... and i ran an 8.61 at 81 mph with my clutch slipping a little...about how fast would that be in the quarter?

8.61 * 1.53 = 13.17

(1.53 is apparently a good # to multiply your 1/8th time by to get an approx 1/4 mile time)

1.53 is a good number if your car is a very, very strong topend car.

More like 1.55-1.57 to be more accurate for cars with slicks.
