I must be an idiot, but I don't get the Acceleration plot, ?
Torque when multiplied with the gear ratios and tire radius equals a force. Mass times a force equals acceleration or f=ma. So using a weight of 2700lb and our factory gears and tire diameters I calculated the acceleration at a given MPH. So the idea is that the more area there is under the line the faster the acceleration or the higher the line the better.
Here is were I go straight NERD. If you were to setup a step function and integrate (solves for the area under the curve) then you could take the next step and determine the time required to hit a certain speed. One more integration would lead to the time to get to a particular distance..... This is how the makers of desktop drag do it.

ok, just for a huge laugh, add mine too it.
i have the dynojet file if you want it. shoot me an email anthony@camuman.com
