Don't they also only calculate for rear wheel drives??

Are you guys adding in the weight of the driver as well? and what is the weight of an Pig STi?

It is only a guide and can only be treated as such.

Lot's of things to take into consideration such as tyres, gear ratio's, temperature, launch etc etc etc.

But I've found they are pretty close when you nail that good run.

Well my guide is

3300 pounds for the car plus 170 pounds for the driver = 3470 pounds

Power is 575 hp atw
TS got so far is= 134 mph.

Calculated

TS: 128 mph
ET: 10.6


So that must mean i have more hp... wohoo...

WAW starts this Wednesday the 3rd September.

Go down and get a REAL 1/4 mile time.

Then you can see how close the online calcs are.
