I have use this in the past, but on the last dyno it was incorrect.

add 11% to your rear wheel number...=222FW

You will need a calulator with a cubed root or a big brain.

HP@FW divided by (weight in Lbs), then cubed root the answer.
Multiply that by 234.

If your car weighed say 1900lbs and made 200@wheels

A bit over 114mph?

Try this one too and use that 11%

=112.45

You have already run nearly 88mph at half track no?

Try this one till you get the number you want:

I get around that 112 mark.

Awsome thanks for that. Yea the half track figure from the 12.5 run was 87.60. I dont think et radials were getting full traction so hopefully that will improve a little.
