i was just curious to know if there is a way to calculate a "there abouts" quarter mile time using stats from a car... Power & weight.

i do understand it alot comes down to drivers ability traction and so forth... but lets scrap all the variables and leave it down to power and weight... every car has a limit as to how fast it could go down a quarter no matter who drives it.

is there some sort of equation that could calculate something like this?

10.92 :)

I would say that computer program likes me and knows i wanna do a 10 lol

10.9 is fine with me :thumbsup: but i should be able to crack a 10 70

i'm running 12.5. easy :( obviously its not gonna be very accurate with only 2 inputs.

guilt toy. what did it spit out for you, compared to your actual time?

dude, it's challenging you !!!

hahahaa thats going by 2rismo's estimated weight in pounds he posted in my thread.

aparently im an 11.4... we will have to wait and see.

mine is pretty close to what times i am expecting so get some slicks and some drag radials and off you go :thumbsup:

pretty accurate...i put in my 3300lb to my 670whp and it says 9.91...my best is 9.95 but thats holding the car back by holding 3rd gear...so on a proper run id say a 9.9 flat is on the money.

put my new wheel hosepower in and weight 3300/900 and it says ill run a 8.9...yeehaa

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
