Does your go fast machine have?

Bike + your weight

Car + your weight

My Bike has around 3.63bs per 1 WHP.

[Sorath]

my car is 6.75lbs / 1 whp (skyline)
other car is 17.3lbs / 1whp (civic)

[98brg2d]

My DD has 21 lbs/Crank HP (don't know WHP).

My turbo neon has ~12 lbs/WHP or ~10 lbs/CHP, maybe a little less like 9.5 lbs/WHP.

My Truck has 19 lbs/CHP (don't know WHP).

Sure, here is mine. Dyno Sheet. (http://forums.beyond.ca/st/225387/163-35whp-and-77-15ft-lbs/)

The 08 GSX-R 1000 is 379lbs dry. Minus around 30lbs for the dual cans I removed. Plus I dunno 5lbs gas? Plus 240lbs for me.

Whoops I was off a little bit. 3.63lbs per 1 WHP.

[dino_martini]

If GM was correct.

16.68lb/1hp for the Saab 9-3

30lbs for cans? Your entire exhaust doesn't weigh that.
Pull into a weigh station and you'll be surprised.

[ercchry]

last time i weighed my car with a 1/4 tank of gas and me it was 1240kg... low est for power would be 250whp, so...

10.9lbs/whp

[endo]

The only thing I had to guess on mine was weight and I estimated high. Me and the bike will weight approximately 675lbs together and it'll make approximately 200rwhp all said and done. I'll make proof later, just posting up for conversation sake...

For the sake of that, what's your ZX6R doin?

[Eleanor]

Yay, I'm glad someone made this, haha. (and a biker, go figure :rofl: )

341lbs / 118hp = 2.89 lbs/hp :D

"Cars suck" :rofl:

You forgot to add your weight to the bike weight when calculating. I'm gonna quote this so we can see whether or not you're a heffer.

377lbs+275(me w/ leathers) / 111hp crizzank.

And in the spirit of pulling numbers out of the air:

9.11 lbs/hp for my A6.
3836lbs + 265 (me in skiv's) / 450hp (my theoretical max hp)

[The Cosworth]

HP - 152



20.98lbs / 1hp

[zain123]

That's what they weigh. I sold the stock cans on ebay, when I shipped them the weight they gave me at the post office was 35lbs including the box. They aren't that light.

[GoChris]

about 8lb/hp for my car

[pattyt]

Infiniti I30

14.7 lbs per crank hp ... that was brand new, wonder what it is now :burnout:

[4DoorGTZ]

Heavy car and my fat ass gets 7.7lbs/hp, stock that would have been 10.25lbs/hp.

[Destinova403]

my car is a fat pig... if honda is right its got

14.41 lbs/hp

[Ekliptix]

2002 Z06

Weight = 3,117lbs link (http://www.supercarsite.net/chevrolet/corvette-c5-z06/2002)
403rwhp (~460hp)Link (http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b109/Ekliptix/dynograph-cam.jpg)

Equals 6.77lb/hp, or
7.73lb/rwhp

oops, forgot to add my 185lbs weight

[GoChris]

so many people with low lb/hp numbers, yet so few people running quick times at the track. :dunno:

[Ekliptix]

I'm one of them, but I will have a low 12 this season when I borrow some track tires.

None of these hp or lb/hp questions mean much. The 1/4mi # is the real test.

[TorqueDog]

According to the interwebs, 3792 lbs for the car. Bathroom scale says 175 lbs for me.

9.48 lbs/hp without driver
9.91 lbs/hp with driver

[A2VR6]

According to the interfuzz:

Car: 2840 lbs
Me: 155 lbs

13.6 lbs/hp

[97'Scort]

15.6 lbs/crank HP, but that's not counting my stereo, so I don't know. I'd probably have to add another 100 pounds for stereo stuff.
