Dura-Ration at the drags

I just used some old fashioned multiplication division and subtraction... using a mental slideing scale the represented the gradual loss of quickness(the 1.57 factor) between the 1/8 and 1/4 but equated from the amount of foot difference (30' in comparison to the 1/8)

It took a lot of thinking and doing...and I'm sure what i typed doesn't really fully describe what I did(confused you more<and myself> probably)and I'm not saying it's right...but that's the factor I came up with...

thats why I made the disclaimer about physics and math...

I do know for a fact that for my trucks 1/8 times multiplied by 1.57 is pretty spot on with all my 1/4 slips...

I'm sure every truck is different so maybe when you get a bunch of 1/4 slips with your newer more consistent times we can figure out if 1.57 is right for your truck too...:thumbsup:
Thats Cool.
