CrazyDave 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Lol! Fun toy this.... Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 291 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1350 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 219.02 0 - 60 (Secs) : 5.30 0 - 100 (Secs) : 12.21 60 - 100 (Secs) : 6.91 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.61 Terminal Speed (MPH) : 105.55 Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 13.41 Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 107.45 Lots of factors that can change how real these figure are though...... Your diff will be a huge benefit as would some sticky tyres (R888's spring to mind) Trying different weight figures highlights just how much difference a few kilos makes to performance. Having said that, it seems pretty accurate 0-60, but the quarter mile figure is a little optimistic. Mine will do low 14's, but never had a 13 :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedTyphoon 0 Posted March 22, 2009 The weight of vr6 without driver is 1240 kg afaik But I used same weight like you guys. Because I cant see why to use kerb weight without driver for drag times. I dont know yet what the power of mine car is,then I used times from the pod with this result Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 228 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1350 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 171.60 0 - 60 (Secs) : 6.37 0 - 100 (Secs) : 15.84 60 - 100 (Secs) : 9.47 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 14.74 Terminal Speed (MPH) : 96.48 Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 14.54 Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 98.16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple Tom 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Not a bad tool, it is almost spot on with the figures for my Vauxhall-engined Mini :) It won't even calculate it for an 8V Rado though as the power-to-weight ratio isn't high enough! :lol: - edit - I tell a lie, it does work but the figures aren't worth posting up :brickwall: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted March 22, 2009 That program is so non-specific it's laughable! I'd take any of those results with some of this: yeah, that's salt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StormchargedVR6 0 Posted March 22, 2009 The weight of vr6 without driver is 1240 kg afaik I know this, i put mine higher because of extra weight of Charger cooler, bass box, etc ,etc. Be even quicker if i binned this lot :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedTyphoon 0 Posted March 22, 2009 I think its pretty accurate. Because I put 190 hp and weight with driver 1350 kg and im getting same times when i took my stock rado first time to the pod Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyDave 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Think it needs a special 'pie' factor adding into the equation :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
