bigpurp....does this hypothesis make sense??

i don't know how to take power delivery/torque curve into account, so bear with me.

1. your car dyno'd 337WHP.
2. you car weighs 200 pounds less.
3. ferrari was a few car lengths ahead of you up to 1/8 of a mile.

i think it's safe to "assume" that he has at least as much WHP as you do (337).

i also think it's safe to say that he actually has more WHP than you do (>337). pick a number....say 350-360...if so that would give the ferrari a 10-12% drivetrain loss.

what the real number is, i don't know.

Makes sense to me.
