It says my car should have 586 rwhp, or with the 530 it hase should go 11.3 @121.
Kind of far off of my car.
But fun

Thats a cool tool, but I am running 3 tenths faster than what it says. Also I'm running in terrible weather.

Anyway its pretty good to get an estimate.

Horsepower Results - 1/4 Mile Method
Your Firebird weighs about 3820 pounds and can complete a 1/4 mile in about 10.99 seconds. That means that you've got about 568.80 HP at the wheels, and about 739.44 HP at the flywheel

Hmmmmmm pretty close

However, by my 127.88 mph the car makes 623.4816462896344 RWHP and by entering that number the car should ET 10.65883015094884 @ 127.87988744512101

The actual best ET this year was 10.99 @ 127.88

Fun stuff

The third formula was only 1 hp off my rwhp numbers given my 1/4 mile time and race weight.

ok figured out a thing or 2
first they are using motor hp #s not wheel hp
next they are calculating for autos not m6's
and it takes
411.77 hp for a 3600 lbs car to get a 11sec slip..

Ummm, it says my car should make 452 RWHP with 3600 pds, and 11.63 1/4. When my car actually dynoed 393 RWHP through the 12 bolt.
