Would have thought it would have been quicker with that power. I guess the 4x4 system zapps a load of bhp

Its only about 2mph away from the max term I would have expected from 521hp and I think 11.08 is faster than I would expect.

Mark,
Isn't terminal speed that states the power rather than the time?? Or both??

Once you know the weight the term speed gives a very good idea of the power.

Not as quick Terminal as my old 500bhp engine back in 2002 that ran a 127mph. That was a full weight car so doubting it had anywhere near 500bhp on that run.

For me 127mph in yours was right on the money.

A good or bad launch has very little diff on term speed. I would put 440hp at 117mph so yours was right on the money.

your rwd will be giving you that 3-4 mph advantage rod, 4wd must be heavier and have more driveline loss

heres a good guide, use terminal mph and weight to determine approximate wheel power, forget the time

Interesting that , thanks for posting it
So a 2WD Sapph with 300atws is around 360-370 ATF yes?? Or not so much? I guess you don't lose 60-70 bhp through 2WD transmission?.

Just looking again, so let's use the 400ATWs and the 1300 Kg car which is a bit heavier than a 2WD Sapph, is 400 ATWs about 450-460 ATF and that's showing a 122 terminal on the graph
