If people get rude or attack people's personality I will get the moderators to remove this post entirely.
The formulae I used is close to what this site gets so it is a good basis from what I have seen.
While it is not a proof, you can work the numbers backward to help predict 1/4 mile and 1/8 mile peeds.
The ETs are difficult to optimise, but can be achieved.
Shifting at 10% over power peak
and leaving the line at an rpm that keeps the engine above peak torque,
as well as running through the traps at 10% over peak power
are some rules of thumb but do not work in every case.
USE TWO DECIMAL PLACES WITH YOUR ET & MPH(no rounding up!!)
in these formulae, and convert car weight to pounds.
Try it out and then we will see you all at warwick for the practical part of the exercise.
