Default Drag Racers in need your help can I calculate my 1/4 Mile if... see below

Hi Guys

Im attending KPM's track day in August 07 & as you know at present there is no operating 1/4 mile stip in Adelaide, much to my disappointment I want AIR.

Well the event will cover a range of things but there will be a

-300 meter drag race event

Depeneding on consensus and time

-motokhana
-100 to 0 brake testing
-0 to 100 accelatation

My question with a 300m drag race & 0 to 100 can I get a pretty accurate time as to what my car would run the 1/4 mile in from these? :

Use the 1/8th mile to 1/4 mile conversion here http://www.tciauto.com/Products/Tech...culators.asp#2

1/8th mile is 201m so you will need that time if possible.

Strap a G Tech meter into the car to give a bit of an idea too.Have heard a few stories about how accurate they are.

If you have your 1/8 mile E.T, multiply by 1.555. It is almost exact.
