Good HP calculator for anyone that runs their car at the track, but has never been to a dyno, or has been to a dyno, and wants to see the equations....it's a good site, and is pretty accurate. Just thought I'd put it out there for the people who may not have seen it before.

Interesting, but a bit optimistic I think. I entered my 'vette's weight with driver (3300lb) and typical speed(142) and it gave me 737 HP. It was running about 610 RWHP when it did that , which is something around 685 flyuwheel HP, maybe 690 if the cool ram air at speed really had any effect.
