I can't relate to the 1/4 times. What were the 1/8 mile numbers?
A quick approximation is .66 (or 2/3) times the quarter mile time. Going the other way, 1.5 times the eighth mile et is a close approximation for a quarter mile. Neither one is exact, but it's close enough for horseshoes or hand grenades.
