    Saturday I took my truck, that I had owned for 10 days, to the local track. It is only 1/8th mile, but I guess it kinda gives me an idea. My wife said I shouldn't race it at first, then when we got there, she said ok, and even took some pics for me. Here is my timeslip and a couple of pics:







    This was my best time, but I also ran a 9.85 @70.92 and a 9.76@ 72.3. What do ya'll think my 9.75 will translate into on the 1/4 mile?

    One of my runs at 14.5 @ 94.1 mph in the 1/4 was a 9.3 @ 75.3 in the 1/8th. My best is a 14.31 @ 95 mph.....

    I done some research here and gmfullsize. Most people with my 1/8 mile time are running between 14.8 to 15.0. I guess that isn&#39;t too bad for a exhaust only LQ9.

    rule of thumb is 1.56 times your 1/8 mile time to compute your 1/4 times.

    Not bad ay all...... I started with a 15.3 stock, 14.7 tuned, 14.3 with cam and stall. I can&#39;t wait to get to the track in this cooler weather. That 14.3 was in 90&#39;s

    rule of thumb is 1.57, but with the weight and brick like of these trucks it translates better to a 1.58x9.75=15.40 or 1.57x9.75=15.30, either or good times.

    I like the 1.56. Makes me faster.
