So what can a 3000lb (with driver) run, with descent traction, run on 300whp? Can anyone tell me that. I've calculated it at about high 12's but that doesn't seem right. Educate me please.

 

have you ever run your car before you got 300whp if so how much whp and i will see if i can give a good estimate

 

1.21 gigawatts....

I used http://robrobinette.com/et.htm and got 12.54(which is approx.) but it doesn't seem right.

 

prelude needs a little more than 300whp to run high 12's. probably 325 or higher.

 

That sounds like a better number. I did a search but didnt find anything (for all those lookin to flame me). If anyone has a good link for me or something go for it.

Can anyone tell me how to calculate, for my own, an estimated 1/4 mile run?

damn.....u shoulda ran a little faster.....what was you 60 foot?

 

Need new tires and 1st time at the track. I'll get better. Made about 5 runs. 0-60 was 7.8something. I don't remember what it was exactly.The dyno sheet is packed away. Still haven't unpacked everything. Plus it was last summer in san antonio texas. Nasty air out there.

 

i say low 13's are high high 12's. This is if your an excellent driver.

Calculations . Every car is different. I have been 12's with less then 300whp On drag radials BFG 225 50 15 . I think its more the driver back when I had stock h23 i went 15.0 falken street tires with beat ragged out motor, Aem intake, Kamikazee 4-1 header, high flow cat, and tanabe exhaust.

2point6 went 12.94 with under 250 whp so there you have it.

SO WHAT, what is your point? Weight is weight... The accord is actually around the same weight as the prelude. Also the prelude has a lower Drag coefficient than the accord... you figure it out.

 

yea im gonna say that 300whp would run mid maybe low 13s judging from the fat that with 200 it runs a good low 15
