Default People good with evaluating time slips (1/8th mile -1/4 mile conversion)

Havent been to the real track in a while, but wondering what an 8.4/8.6 in the 1/8th equals in the 1/4 mile..?

I know that a 7.4-7.8 is low to mid 11's...so Im thinking an 8.4 is a high 12?

8.4-8.6 is usually in the mid to upper 12's range.

Of course there are tons of different factors,
but I've always used the 1/8 time x 1.55 or 1.56.

That would put a 8.4 at about 13.0

thanks guys.

Anyone have a car that runs high 12's ??

What are your 1/8th mile times?

Obviously driver and 60' has a lot to do with it too, im just trying to gather a general concensus.

Thanks..

Thats tight. Nice all motor Vdub.

I noticed that on your fastest run that your 60' was a 2.0 but your 1/8th was an 8.3!! I saw your other slips you were cutting some 1.9's and your 1/8th was an 8.4/8.5.. what happened?

Unfortunately, its not all motor, infact, its stock turbo 1.8T + 50 shot nitrous. The different 60's and ET's were due to me toying around with different RPM's, timing, octane, and bottle pressure.
