For relatively slow cars I multiply by 1.5, it usually is fairly close.

I was turning a 7.85 in the 1/8 on the new motor I built. Now I need to work on making it stick. Spinning most of the way.

I use 1.57 but close enough for hand grenades and A-bombs

Gary "UNLAWFL" told me to use your 1/8th mile time and multiply by 1.57 = 1/4 mile times.
