Default Dyno vs 1/4 mile

This question has been on my mind since I went to the track this week. I am wondering is there a way to calculate horsepower by what you run at the track?

I ask because on my best run I got 13.9 @ 102.4mph but I dyno 228rwhp. I remember someone mentioning that your trap speed tells so much more than a dyno ever could.

1/4 mile times are not corrected for ambient temp, altitude, wind, humidity, driver etc...

a single 1/4 mile run is meaningless

But you are above average.. 13.9@102 is a good run.
