Admin Vista Posted September 30, 2009 Admin Report Posted September 30, 2009 OSFDC round 7 - I promise Dave wont thrash it Hmmm let me think carefully about that. Be interesting to find out what 1/4 time it would do but I'd not expect much from it with a 3.54 CWP

To be honest, everyone respected what he was doing and left him to it.

I ran a 14.7 Thanks Jo, what sort of wheels bhp do you have? No way I'm sacrificing my 3.54 as a slave to 1/4 miles times though Round shiny ones with black tyres You'll have to ask Ian ... they are 13" x 7" but dunno about the rubber

Admin Mk2Jo Posted October 2, 2009 Admin Report Posted October 2, 2009 lol ... sorry, didn't read the bhp bit I have 181 at the flywheel .. dunno about the wheels ... what's the percentage drop?
Admin Vista Posted October 2, 2009 Admin Report Posted October 2, 2009 About 15% transmission losses for front wheel drive cars and 17% for rear wheel drive is a rule of thumb. This tends to overstate the losses for high powered engines and understate them for smaller ones. A more sophisticated guide is to deduct 10% of the flywheel power plus another 10 bhp for FWD and 12% plus another 10bhp for RWD cars.
