there was a formula out to calculate... i think it was 1/8thET X 1.51, so that would put me at 15.55. sounds about right, but i think i'd run a little faster
Yeah, I wish this would work out because I would run a 14.73 in the 1/4. Not so, last week I ran at Kil-Kare in Dayton, Ohio, and I ran a best of 15.8. Pretty crappy. It was kind of warm, maybe around 80 degrees, and track sits at almost a 1000 feet. When I ran on the 1/8 in Dothan, it was about 50 degrees out and at sea level. My slips from Kil-Kare show a 1/8 mile time at 10.2, I ran 9.7 at Dothan. I don't think the temperature change and altitude should make that much of difference. I mean, it is only 880ft above sea level at Kil-Kare. Maybe that Jet Power Contol Unit really did work. I had that on my car when I ran at Dothan, but not when I ran at Kil-kare last week.
