I'd like to see the Formula for working stuff like that out!!

Do you input the age of your spark plugs/the make of your HT Leads/the fuel rating/oil/ etc. etc.??

I would suggest that it could be this site:- www.ChavBollox.co.uk ?

Come on Pete, your an engineer, work it out, fairly straight forward physics.

Did a spread sheet ages ago that gave a reasonable match, the hardest bit is modeling the dynamics of clutch and tyre slip.

Must see if I can find it again.

MaxPower type Bollox

And we wonder why the Impreza now has a Chav image ...... performance calculators

Mind you, it did say I had a Blue wagon and my front offside tyre was close to the legal minimum Bloody Clever these Chavs

It will give impressive figures... but conditions, car, driver, launch, and gearchanges need to be pretty perfect to get near them.
