Haven't gotten mine to the track yet. Though I was an idiot and started a business that required me to drive all the time so I had to trade in my 86 mustang that was doing 9.30's in the 1/8. Which is what brings me to this forum.

"nonner"??? that mean N/A?
Anyway, there are no 1/4 tracks around...I still don't know where the closest quarter is, but I know at best it would be over 100 miles away.
Plus, my mustang probably wouldn't have excelled in the quarter. 3.73 rear end. I would be in 4th when I finished the 1/8. (it was a 5-sp manual)

I've got a 1/4 oval!! and that's about it... I don't think we have any dragstrips or Dyno's within 200 miles (literally...) I think Calgary is about the closest for me... So consider yourself lucky with an 1/8 mi track

the 1/8 track hardly compares anything. cause a lot can change in that next 1/8th mile and that is what shows most cars falling. After all getting giddy about 8 or so seconds in the 1/8th usually always means you really arent going to hit that 12 seconds in the 1/4
