This one is good as well. A little more detailed as it takes the driven wheels into account:

The calculator has no way of knowing that your car is the fastest and most powerful 335d ever made and that it is quicker in a straight line than a Porsche Cayman S (provided the Porsche driver was blind and physically restrained in such a way that he was unable to change gear).

Your one was pretty accurate Simon. But Still daft aint it.

The one I posted is actually amazingly accurate, given the simplicity of the data.

I can see the merit really if you want to compare cars or consider the possible impact of tuning.

If you have a look around the site they have a list of derived performance data, which really does reflect relative performance quite well for petrol engines.

It does fall down when it comes to diesels though, because the power delivery is obviously not the same as it is for a petrol engine.

i know and they have so much torque it which makes them quicker than people think.

Did you see the little article on the Vector HPRV (Hyper Performance Road Vehicle) in this months Evo?

10 litre twin supercharged V8 with 1850bhp and 1700lb.ft of torque

Top Speed: 'over 275 mph'

Standing 1/4 mile - 10 secs with a terminal speed of 160mph

0-60 in 2.5 secs

Blimey

I would like to see that happen, in reality it would not have the traction to achieve a 2.7 0-60..
even with that power to weight ratio.. and being a TVR would probably break down half way up he strip... Joke.


Thats the thing with these ''calculators''.


One hell of a quick car tho. Wonder from 70-170 what would win, remember the veyron has PILES more torque than the speed 12 also. Even if it has less P2W
