Really? Let me guess...........forced induction with lots of lag.
Doc, That's a great time and speed. Your faster than 99+% of the Vipers out there. Your 60' is very close but I think the 1/8 should be around 6.38 to 6.43 to bust a 9 with a nitrous motor. 110 mph in the 1/8 is about as slow as you can go and run a 9.
The only 1/8 to 1/4 conversion problem I can see for you is if you are getting those wicked 1/8 times by short shifting where all of the power is (~4,500), you might lose a little in the 1/4 because you will have to go past 4,500 in 4th gear where some of the power (torque) drops off. I think that's the same thing that Albert has seen.
In my car, 6.51 would be a 10.07 to 10.10 and that's flying. Good call Tony.
