According to it with my car based at 3600 pounds with 425 rwhp it says it should run around 11.87 which is not that great... I hope its better than that!

Then it should be bottom 11s thanks! But it can't really tell what gears I have, or stall so I know its not 100% accurate but it gives me a semi ballpark

McAfee is warning me about negative content from that site.
Might be nothing, or might be something.

Default Fun!

Cool site, thanks for sharing! For grins I plugged in the expected weight of my 73' Nova @ 3200lb and HP goal with with my 5.3 swap, 400HP, and came up in the mid 11's! That sounded pretty optimistic, but I like it!

Then for a real laugh I plugged in what my Nova should have run with the stock 307, at 119HP, at 3200 LB and came up with high 16's to low 17's @ 80MPH which is just about what it ran at SIR back in my high school days!

Cool

I plugged in a set of "wild-@$$-guess" numbers for my combo (3550 lb weight, 27" tire height, & 391 HP - which is corrected from a "WAG" 460 HP at sea level) & it told me I should be right around 11.62 @ 110.33 here at altitude, which seems reasonable... I'm guessing that my real results will be a bit slower, since I just don't see a set of new (deeper) rear-end gears in the near future...

Then, just for grins, I plugged in the same info except that I utilized the 460 HP, & it told me I'd be within a WHISKER of running 10s!!! (11.04 @ 116.47) Man, I hate this altitude sometimes...
