That's crazy, that say a turboed crx at 2200lbs, and at 350 hp is 10.2 sec. If I recall Jason Hunt's crx was at 10.00 @ 146mph at over 600hp, and that's awsome driving and a great set up. I agree, maybe that the calculator is 1sec off.

yup..agree. at least a second off. i hit a 13.2 at 108 with a shitty 60'. so getting a better 60', don't know if that would drop me a full second.

the mph is pretty good though.

haha
that thing is way off
its about 1 second faster than reality
i put 200hp and 2800 pounds for my integra and i got 13.2 @97mph. yeah right i never seen any front whel drive cars come close to 13.2 with only 97mph. more like low 14's
i run mid 14's

the mph is preatty accurate but its at least 1 second off. the time they give you are more like 4wd with slick times

Note: This estimate assumes that your car is optimized, and is based upon typical drag car performance data at sea level, and with optimum traction.

That is what it says at the bottom of that page and with that said we all know there is no such thing as optimum traction on front wheek drive?

add a second to the time and keep the trap and its pretty acurate for FWD.

Those things are bench racing at their finest.

My car won't even run close to the 12.17 at 106 it claims. I have owned 11 second cars in the past and this isn't even close to one lol.
