Default 1/8 mile vs. 1/4 mile???

I live near an 1/8th mile track and the closest 1/4 mile is in Rockingham, NC. 3 hours away. So even when I go there I do not run my car. I am affraid of being stranded if somthing breaks. Anyway, I run 9.10 @ 76.99mph w/ 60ft of 2.00. It is in my sig. below. I have I/H/E and other small mods nothing much. Could you guys tell me what to expect on the 1/4 track?

regardless. i think we are all in the same ballpark. we cant hit the # EXACTLY... every car is different, he might have a weaker or stronger topend.. who knows.

you have a rough idea.. now youll just have to run it to see what it does exactly
