    That alone gives you a 7.9, however when you cut that much off your 60 you can typically get even more off the 1/8th. So lets say with a 1.6 60' you cut a 7.8 - 7.9


    7.8 in the 1/8th is roughly 11.8 - 12.0 in the 1/4th. Even lower with a good geared back halfing car.


    My camaro did some 7.45 // 11.5-11.8 runs.


    The math is easy to do.

    My GTO ran some low 8.2's and ran 12.7 in the 1/4th.
    According to statistics, calculating collected data from past time slips and current records on a certain car - Thacker seems to be pretty accurate with this post. To some extent, why? Because unlike him, Jaime doesn't own a Camaro/GTO, so this theory is invalid since every car isn't going to perform the same. And just because one car traps 110 and hits an 11 sec pass doesn't necessarily mean another car will too. Common physics.
