dyt397c Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 not sure this is in the right section, but does anyone know of a website that will calculate your estimated 1/4 mile time, top speed etc when you type in car weight, power etc? i had it saved in my favourites but computer crashed!! i`m sure someone posted it on here a while back? i`d like to estimate the Anglia`s 1/4 mile times for when it`s done.
Rick Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 seems a bit wierd to have such a program as surely a lot depends on the reactions of the driver and the conditions of tyres, surface etc etc
dyt397c Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 it`s just a `guess-timate`. obviously it depends on weather conditions etc but it gives a rough idea of what your car should run. the one i looked at before was pretty accurate. when the Anglia had a v6 it said it should run 15.2 and it ran 15.4!!

ZetecVan 2.0 Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 My standing quarter at the Retro Ford bash was a bit slower than this. Partly I reckon due to my magic wand gear stick. If I got a quickshift I might knock at least a second off my time! Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 152.

dyt397c Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Posted May 10, 2008 11.8 What horsepower have you got ? Hoping for around 350bhp at the crank, maybe more!! plus 100bhp extra with gas.
Airbag Posted May 10, 2008 Report Posted May 10, 2008 according to that site my 2.8i has 164 bhp, not bad for standard lol.
