Disking a field

How much is it possible to disk in an 8 hour day with an 8N and a 6’ disk? Soil is sandy loam. Needs to be done so my wife’s great uncle can plant some oats. He has a seed drill but no disc. Just trying to see if I could help him out a little.
 
hmmmm,2acres takes me aprox 35 minutes with a 7' double gang disc.sandy loam.was it plowed?that first pass will be rough.imma thinking 2nd gear
 
Seems like 11 acres took a few hours, IIRC.

It has not been plowed. He just has it disced each year. He usually pays somebody come do it for him but I’m just trying to save him some money if it’s feasible to do it myself with the equipment I have.
