Projected 1/4 by 1/8 time

Ran my GTA 1st time yesterday
Best runs were 9.13 and 9.18 at 75 mph in 1/8 mile(Street tires, no mods). What would that come to in 1/4?

Hey, those are good times! When my car ran 9.1x at 75 in the 1/8, its 1/4 miles were about 14.10-14.29 @ 96-98 MPH.

Thanks...
Guess that's pretty good then for a 148,000 mile car, but brand new rebuilt trans.

Lost to an LT1 Camaro by a few inches...got him off the line, I'm sure he was spinning...cause I was. Had him by a couple of car lengths, but he caught up to me pretty fast. Most of my runs were in 9.5s, had a lot of spinning off the start, then more before shift into 2nd. It also shifted into 3rd about 50 ft from line.
3.27's in rear.
