Message	: 6.46*7200 / (88 * 3.69 * .75) = 190.98 mph ?? : Damn. : I had my stage 3 bounce of the jwt rev limit in 5th once. : (or sure felt like a rev limiter) : Damn. : If I'd known I was going *that* fast I would probably shit my pants. coefficient drag along with drivetrain losses. I had some spare time a few days ago and figured out how much force there would be on the front of the car. 100 mph : 154 lbs 130 mph : 260.26 lbs 150 mph : 346.5 lbs 175 mph : 471.6 lbs 200 mph : 616 lbs!!!!!!!! F = 0.0154 (v(mph))^2 pounds (don't ask for the paperwork.. hehe.. it's a bunch of scribble) I also figured out (in a perfect world where the roads are flat, there's no traffic, and the car has a longgggggggggg stretch of road), that to reach 200 mph, the Z would only need 328.533 brake hp (with coefficient drag taken into effect) [0.3388 / 8250](v(mph))^3 hp Later, Phuong Import Survival Series V - pics are up ICQ - 59084049 GR Racing Due to recent cutbacks, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off.
