    Can't see the need for saying something like "what the hell." That said, I did it again and here is what your calculator says:

    "Your Horsepower computed from your vehicle weight of 4500 pounds and MPH of 117.6 is 601.52. "

    Believe it or not, they are fairly accurate until you get into the sub 9 second range. Besides, what else is there to do with half the country covered in snow. :beerchug:

    It is the MPH calculator at http://www.wallaceracing.com/et-hp-mph.php. I just put in my MPH and got
    "Your Horsepower computed from your vehicle weight of 4500 pounds and MPH of 116.805 is 589.40."

    My RWHP was 491 at 1.2 it is 589. It looks right to me.
