that thing can't be accurate.
doesn't include tire size, gearing, power band, traction, driver, track, external conditions, etc.

Its simple yet effective...
I plugged in FJT's WHP numbers from D-series.org,
http://www.d-series.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21669
and his 1/4 mile times along with his weight, are shown in this thread... http://www.d-series.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21881
To sum it up, he has 266whp, and car weighs 2600lb. He ran a 12.44.
The 1/4 mile ET calculator estimated a 12.454505826295314
Id say thats good enough for guestamating.

Well, Nismo is absolutely correct, you have to figure all those factors in. According to that, I should running a 13.68, which IS possible for 158whp in a 2050lb car, but my tires said otherwise.[post=510547]Quoted post[/post]
I don't know why that was so funny, but I almost pissed myself when I read that.... I must be stoned...
