Message Using 3700lbs curb weight you need aproximately 500rwhp to run 120mph trap speeds, but you need perfect conditions to run the optimal trap speed.

Mark Leader's car ran 12.1 at 120mph. so if your goal is 11s, you want enough hp on top of 500rwhp to have that much more room to run for 11s. My car ran 11.7 at 127mph but with a 2.2 60'. At ~3700lbs my car made aprx. 600rwhp according to the trap speeds.

That should give you an idea about what kind of rwhp you need to run 11s. BTW my car has run 129.9mph previously which translates to 630ish rwhp.
