Ok here is what I've come up with to give me an idea as to what the e/t of the car will be ROUGHLY.
Last weds we ran a best of 13.0@110 with a 2.1 60'
Each tenth you take off your 60' is good for .2 off your e/t.
So if we clocked a 1.8 60' we just shaved .3 off 60' and brought the e/t down .6 to a 12.4.
Now with the same settings just adding a little n2o here is what I've come up with.
Looking at the time index's from last weds it took me 3.5 seconds to use 3rd gear at 6800 rpms.
This morning I was doing it in 3.05 seconds at the same rpm. So we just shaved .5 off the e/t above bringing it down to 11.9 in theory. There are way more variables involved but we'll see if this holds up.
On a side note I wonder if I should trust the HP calculation on the dsmlink. 635hp in 3rd gear ;-)
