That makes no sense.
Yes, it does. I haven't been to the track, but I have plenty of roads where we've measured the quarter mile and I'll take my car, run it, and by the time I get to the other side, I'm doing anywhere from 104-108.

Thats not a real trap. You don't know until you take it to the track. That will give you an estimate. You would prpbably run high 12s to low 13s with your set up. That would be my guess anyways.

the difference between 104 and 108 puts you anywhere between 12.5~13.5 not very accurate. what makes no sense is there is no trap in the street and you said trap speed... how did you measure the quarter mile anyway ? with a ruler or tape ? the road can't be completely flat and straight either. it would be safer to assume what you could run by comparing it to someone else with the same car/mods than the method above.

Not too shabby, my LS1 usually doesn't hit 84 in the 1/8.

The best I've done in my speed demon is a blistering 16.08 @ 89.3. i'll let you know in a couple days what it runs when I can actually get it off the line, and get my exhaust leak fixed. Dont make fun of me, at least I'm being honest...
