9's arnt really high 13's. Their 14's.

aprox.
9.0 = 14.13
9.1 = 14.28
9.2 = 14.44
9.3 = 14.60

there not to hard to achieve.

Actually it's not even something you can use a standard calculation on. My Supra would occasionally run high 8s and even a low 9 when I spun too much through second, but it was plenty faster than a 14 second car. So it really depends on what you are racing....if you are trapping high, then your 1/4 will reflect faster times than your 1/8 ET conveys.

For the record, I was using generalized numbers as an example. I hit low 8's plenty of times in the 1/8th.

thats a lil diffent.. were discussing N/A trapping like 72-74, I hit 9's with my car but its plenty faster then 14seconds.

I agree...that's all I was pointing out, is that your calculation isn't set in stone (for anyone in the future that may try to e-race with it).

ok..i said high 13's because its a little bit more a "respectable" goal..im pretty sure there are people in the world who would be happy running a 14.1..but sometimes IMO that sounds retarded. which is why i said high 13..i was aware that it was a 14 in actuality.

Yeah thats cool. just pointing out. But still like Low 9's very big time with 1/4mile, like my buddies b16 91 ran 9.3 which he would pull like mid-high 14's in the 1/4 which is about correct for what he has. But of course it best to run the 1/4 then try to convert times anyways. I hate 1/8mile track, sucks their no close 1/4mile where i live
