Default 1/8th to 1/4 conversions?

well i just got back from takin a couple runs at the track today. it was my first time ever taking a car down the track and even with 275 rear tires couldnt hook up much at all. the best out of my 8 or 10 tries was a 9.58 at 75.49mph. can someone tell me roughly what that would be in the quarter?

are you saying that if i were to hook it should run mid 14's or with that 1/8th mile time that i would be mid 14's.

that seems quicker than i thought since all i have done to my car is full exhaust, intake and a shift kit.
and i only dyno'd at 187/252

ya i mean it could range from mid 14s to low 15's, but ur mph is basicaly the same as mine.
