Try the 0-60 calculation. I am interested to know how close it is to what you car is saying.

I just edited my previous post with it.

So now which 1 to believe ?.... the car or the calculator ?
.42 difference between calculation & performance pages.

Split the difference and that is probably close to the true number.

True, but I like the 1.78 better.

I checked the the performance/timer in the car this morning and it said best 1/4 mile was 9.2 and I know it ran 8.90 so the computer is slow. It said that my best 0-60 was 1.51 and Wallace Racing calculator said 1.37 so considering that the computer was .3 slow in the 1/4 that sounds about right.

Your times are very stout no matter what !... my performance pages 1/4 timer shows 9.8 & my PB time slip is 9.83, so pretty much right on.

I don’t know what data the computer is using to calculate the numbers. I have 30.5” tall tires with 3.40 gears so that could be a factor. I know my speedo reads from 8 to 10 mph slow.

Do you know your rwhp? Can you also tell me your weight and mph? I want to try some calculations to see how close they are with a fast car like yours.

0-60 2.18

rwhp is 1202 thru a T400. The calculator for that (there’s one for everything lol) says 1460 crank hp. The car ran 8.90 at 155.1 mph at 4525 lbs.

Is that weight with you in the car?

 

[Markp]

Your HP is 1,268.63 computed from your vehicle weight of 4525 pounds and ET of 8.9 seconds. Holy Shit pretty accurate

 

[Marc W]

Is that weight with you in the car?

Yes. I scaled at 4499 With me in the car and added a 25 lb bag of ice in the box.

 

[Markp]

Your Horsepower computed from your vehicle weight of 4525 pounds and MPH of 155.1 is 1,300.92.

 

[Markp]

Your ET / MPH computed from your vehicle weight of 4525 pounds and HP of 1202 is 9.06 seconds and MPH of 149.14 MPH

 

[Markp]

I would say these calculators are pretty damn close.

Do you know your hp humbers or weight ? I want to try yours.
