So I was thinking and I have heard before that every 100lbs is a tenth. How much horsepower does it take to pick up a tenth aswell? anyone ever tried to see what it takes to drop a tenth between weight and power?

Roughly 10 RWHP as a rule of thumb for 12-13 second cars. It takes more and more HP to make a tenth the quicker you go.
