You can't use 1/8 to figure hp.
Why not?




Quote:
If both pick up 29mph (a reasonable gain), then car#1 shows 915hp and car #2 shows 1020hp.
This is not the way to do that.




Quote:
Here is another example paper says 1000hp, car runs 9.2s at 146-147 car weighs 3300lbs, thats not 1000hp.

No it's not.
Who's car is that?
Probably needs to check the car out and find what is not optimized for that combo?
