Alex F, Thats a rather impressive saff.

jesus wept.

i VERY nearly added more to my post and was going to say that their are stupid fucks out there quoting power/weight for bikes as they are on their side stands instead of real world with a rider on. Guess what the very next post is?

So my bike is 482/tonne yet your cat was 555? APMSL.

I'd HAMMER your cat

ps no way bike is 180 kg. its DEFINITELY heavier than mine for starters!!

S1rst

Lambchop. Thats the thing the quoted weight figures for bikes are usually dry weight so it adds a fair few kilos with the fuel and fluids in, not to mention with 12 stone sat on it.

But anway, all the car drivers are quoted figures without taking the driver into account so i will for my bike too.

About 170 kilo and 125 bhp,

So mines 735 bhp/ton

More like 500 bhp/ton with me on it though.

S1rst

My new bike without me on it will be about 1114 bhp/ton without me on it!

Still, about 765 bhp/ton with me on it though.

Smit,
Can you please tell me how you expect to achieve the times quoted WITHOUT a driver . Convert it to auto and use a brick on the accelerator and tie the steering wheel straight? .

Spiky

iTrader: (1)

get me to drive, only a 10kg additonal weight then

Fudgey

iTrader: (4)

im sure you will hammer it, infact, even i can run faster than the fucking thing after some stupid cunt made an illegal right turn and it ended up like this



ok, 180 is prob dry weight, so with fluids and full tank of fuel your looking at about another 30kg, and me on it its prolly about 300kg

ok that makes 333bhp/ton

it was still quicker than any car i raced lol

pmsl @ spiky

my fiesta approx 45bhp/ton

I am aiming for somewhere over 700 per t (800 was the target), It all depends how much I can spend on lightweight bits and how much Stu can squeeze out of a T38

I guess by the time I have finished it though ( ) 700 per t will be the norm for a hot hatch

Dan

You've seriously not heard/seen Rod's Saph before?

WD Pro

I am surprised more people didnt mention it, must be because it doesnt have a blue oval on the bonnet

Very cool motor though

Was just doing a comparison between the 2 to see how much 70kg (my weight) slowed the car down. Quite shocked on how close those quoted fiqures are compared to my timed ones... 0.2 second on the QTR isn't bad for 70kg is it....

Ad4m RST

Got an St170 with few mods so only about 154hp/ton atm...

Rod-Tarry

I entered figures for a 1936 Morris 8

Its quite right it dont have a 0-60 its flat out at 48mph

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 27
Weight without Driver (KG) : 1000
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 27.43
Invalid Entry : Power must be between 70 and 1500 BHP

Mine weighs about 775 or so, maybe less so

322bhp/per ton

iTrader: (2)

My twin engined fiesta mk3 when done on low spec 250bhp engines should be around 555bhp/per ton!

Rod-Tarry

Veyron = 486 torque/ton

Mine off gas = 477 torque/ton (644ft-lb)
Mine on gas = 625 torque/ton (gas will give wayover 200ft-lbs so figure is conservative)

Luca

iTrader: (2)

im looking in the regions of 560bhp per ton

CossieRich

iTrader: (1)

According to that site a 400bhp rwd car weighing 1300kg does 0-100 in 8.85 seconds. Is that correct (ish)

Luca

iTrader: (2)

I think it is if you get a perfect launch and no wheelspin etc...

as the time it quotes for a FWD car with 450bhp is IMO way out

Benni

And I read it is also with the best suspension set up etc.

Am getting 245 per ton for my S2 and don't know what the track car weighs so pass on that lol!

S1rst

Ive heard a few people mention the '200mph' cosworth before but ive never seen pics of it or seen the spec and power levels etc. I always thought it was an escort.

Paul Eggleton

1. Spiky 205 GTI with 205BHP per Ton
2. dingy MK2 escort 591bhp per ton
3. Rhys M2 Mondeo 74bhp per ton
4. fuzzy bmw e30 cosworth 213.6 bhp per ton
5. Nick 911 TT (996) DMS 380bhp per ton
6. rapidcossie saf 423 bhp per ton
7. bonus_boys mk4 168 bhp per ton
8. Jase / Rattys Track Maestro 306.6 per ton
9. Elwood - Focus ST - 187Bhp per ton
10. Jimboxr4x4 - 232 bhp per ton
11. Paul Eggleton - M3 CSL - 250 bhp/tonne

That software adds in the weight of a driver, thats why it asks for the weight without.

If its an american driver, that explains why Johnny thinks the times are too slow, cause he is about 15 stone lighter than the average american

dvid

12. Dave - MG ZS 180 - 141 bhp/tonne

the original

if mine weighs about a ton then
400bhp/ton
but my honda blackbird is quicker

S1rst

All these power to weight figures are irrelevent though really as everyones quoting flywheel power. Its the power thats put down on the road that matters.

Benni

I tried and never had enough.

neilm

My 1964 Ford Anglia 105E is 187bhp and weighs 850kg's

This gives 220bhp per tonne

Its 151 at the wheels which gives a 'real' figure of 177bhp

Which aint bad for a 43 year old car...

'Ave it !!!

Rod-Tarry

This is all just light hearted fun & means nothing, you actually have to run your car against the clock to really see how fast it is, few do cos this is much easier .

Dingy

also add a few corners in it to LOL

JonnyBravo

jbrayley

Well thats to see how "quick" it is, how "fast" a car is, is generally accepted as the cars top speed
