This thread is not for you!


If you lack the curiosity to follow the link I provided, do not know your car's weight or hp why would you waste your time reading this?

Good luck

For those who missed the question and answer earlier

if you know your cars weight and hp plug it in and let us know how close this thing is to your actual et.
I know you prefer someone saying yes or no, but here is an article that explains the 'art' of estimating. Click on the following

http://www.stealth316.com/2-calc-hp-et-mph.htm

The calculator is meant to compare. If you have say 400 rwhp and want to go .1 sec faster what will it take? That is what this is for not for you guys to desktop dyno ...

Fergy, after you click OK, does a window like this pop up?


If so, click the blue "click here" and then take a screenshot of what the next window says (also might be a save log feature) and post that up. It'll help Battle determine what exactly is causing the crash. Could be an outdated file on your computer, or his app.

With that said, Service Pack 3 is out now and isn't that big for people who already have Service Pack 2 installed. Supposedly 70mb~ or so, but I think if you just got SP2 and no updates since it may be larger. Anyways off topic so I'll hush.


Battle, may I add some constructive criticism? Maybe add a tick-box next to the Flywheel, BHP, 1/8 and 1/4 times so a person can select which they want the program to calculate from. Say a person doesn't remember their 1/8th time but their 1/4 time. If you don't enter the correct 1/8th time it'll just mess up the 1/4 result and output an outlandish number. Same with the HP portion for people who've had their motors dynoed but not their car and vice versa.

The help file should state if you want to use 1/4 mile time leave 1/8 mile empty. To use rwhp leave flywheel empty.

This way it is easier to switch since all you do is clear one no need to change a check

This app has worked onwin 98, win 2k and xp his is only machine I have heard a problem on...

Ah. Well, I hadn't read the whole help I guess I figured the app to be simple enough not to really require help, just to be fairly straight forward. Maybe add that into the main window of the program then?

As for your antenna. Make one I did. I just cut it down to the length I wanted and glued a round bead on top to make it look 'normal'.

But by all means, continue with your useless trolling.

This is a perfect example of why I HARDLY EVER come to this site anymore. There's alot of cool cats on here but for every one of them, there's 3 dicks like Bolter-Bitch.

Dude, do me a favor...pick up your kepboard and smash yourself in the face with it. If done properly, it should only hurt for a week.

Of the 113K subscribers here, that's a damn good ratio I won't deny it's irritating sometimes. He tries to make fun of our stupidity, when in actuality his is the only one present.

Formula350, don't know if you read the ratio numbers wrong or not but if there's 3 dicks to every 1 non-dick (if you will), that's 33% of the guys being cool and 66% being like the aforementioned ***....lol. Granted, I don't think it's honestly that bad but there are way more to the bad.

But I digress.

I do agree 110% with your last sentence. It's funny for the first post but quickly becomes irritating, yet easily identifiable.

You do realize that you're a minority on here, right?

LOL....I understand what your'e saying IO. As mentioned above this is yet another tell-tale sign that your'e dealing with a complete ***. The stupidity or illiteracy trait goes hand in hand with the condition I like to call Cranial Rectitus.....or.....your head up you ***, which in turn prevents the brain from functioning properly due to the lack of air up said ***....which is OBVIOUSLY where our friend Bolter chooses to keep his.
