its nice but i dont agree with it.
for example, i dont think it takes 640 rwhp at 3650 lbs to run a slow 10.43
maybe i'm using it wrong
I like the old "Drag Strip Dyno" by Mopar or the Moroso Power Speed calculator. I mostly use the Moroso calculator any more as that is what most everyone else uses, and that makes it apples to apples when comparing numbers between cars. The Drag Strip Dyno has really good info in the text for understanding, but it seems to generate power numbers that are a little higher.

The formula I'm using is the same one that's all over the net in other calcs which is the Patrick Hale formula. If you punch in that hp/weight into the calc in the mopart's tech archive you'll get almost the same et. So I don't know what to say about it.
Are you saying the 10.43 was slow or the mph that my program was showing was slower than you expected, or both? The whole deal is kinda ballpark but I'd like it to be as accurate as I can make it.
thanks for the comments

i just tried it on 2 cars that i know the weight and hp numbers from the dyno.if you adjust the hp scale so the hp numbers from the dyno match the hp numbers at the fywheel it is pretty dead on with the actual et/mph for the 2 cars
