A car is only as good as it's driver, and there are a dozen other factors that calculator doesn't account for.

17" is the diameter of the rim, not the height of the tire..

ET calculators are pretty retarded though. Go do it for real.

This is way off-it told me 11.49 @ 112mph-that would require a ridiculous sub 1.5 60ft. I have a few tenths left in my set-up but no where near that fast....

Temperature? Humidity? Track condition? Tire pressure? There are all huge factors as well.


Also, I put in 300hp, 3383 (how much my Track Z weight with me in it), and 18" for tire diameter, but I'm guessing thats not right. Anyways, it appears only vehicle weight and Hp affect the final number, because I'm supposed to run a 12.47 @ 104.43 with a stock Z... LOL.

I don't know.. trap speed is way off , too low for me.

But time is dead on. I put on 240hp for wheel hp instead of 287 or whatever, and I put 26" tire size.

It gave me 13.38 at 97mph.. I just ran a 13.37 at 104.

Ideal gearing is 3.9 it says.

Try it again with wheel hp and 26" for tire size.
