Default Need Help with finding 0-60 calculator (from 1/8th mile time)

I'm looking for a way to calculate my 0-60 time from my quarter mile slip.

I found this calculator:

Any comments? Suggestions? Recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

It is way off for me.

I entered 7.902 at 98.96mph and it gave 2.9 sec. It was actually 3.9.

I have found this chart to be fairly accurate. It’s based on the 60’ time so traction off the line plays an import role (as it does with 0-60 time). I tried the 1/8 mile calculator and it said my 0-60 was 3.05 seconds which I know is way off. According to this chart my 0-60 time is 4.6 seconds which I believe to be much more accurate.

60' to 0-60 conversion
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.3 second 60' time = 35.5 mph @60' = 7.0 second 0-60 time
2.2 second 60' time = 37.1 mph @60' = 6.5 second 0-60 time
2.1 second 60' time = 38.9 mph @60' = 5.9 second 0-60 time
2.0 second 60' time = 40.9 mph @60' = 5.2 second 0-60 time
1.9 second 60' time = 43.0 mph @60' = 4.6 second 0-60 time
1.8 second 60' time = 45.5 mph @60' = 4.0 second 0-60 time
1.7 second 60' time = 48.1 mph @60' = 3.4 second 0-60 time
1.6 second 60' time = 51.1 mph @60' = 2.9 second 0-60 time
1.5 second 60' time = 54.5 mph @60' = 2.2 second 0-60 time
1.4 second 60' time = 58.4 mph @60' = 1.5 second 0-60 time
1.36 second 60' time = 60.0 mph @60' = 1.36 second 0-60 time
1.3 second 60' time = 62.9 mph @60' = 1.2 second 0-60 time
1.2 second 60' time = 68.1 mph @60' = 1.1 second 0-60 time
1.1 second 60' time = 74.3 mph @60' = 0.9 second 0-60 time
1.0 second 60' time = 81.8 mph @60' = 0.7 second 0-60 time
