A bit less I would have though.

Bugger, looks like I was bragging now, I prefer to look clueless

But without a dyno who knows.

Do the figures backwards until it matches the real standing quarter then
you should have a rough idea?

I'm looking for a bit of software for WindowsCE (my satnav) that measures
quarter-mile, 0-60 etc. called "MoreRevs" or summat, or some other software
if anyone knows of any ? I'm not trying to do a 0-60 dash with a stopwatch
in my hand.

It wont be very accurate though because I have a bunch of real figures
here (standing quarters@mph from long marston, pod, york, and dyno
figures) for a bunch of vehicles I ran over the years. Some are about
right. The rest are are quite fast or really slow! It doesent seem to
allow for traction (lack of) other than front/rear drive, or differences
in drag etc. Or the fact that you cant use full throttle for the first
1/8th on some really fast stuff... Seems ok on regular shaped relatively
low powered cars.

Never thought of that, it spins the wheels pretty easily in the lower gears,
so in Real Life it's bound to be a fair bit slower...

Anyway, it's all academic at the moment, needs fixing. ;(
