Default 4.0ltr Turbo RWKS 1/4 mile & MPH calculator

Recently posted this on another site! I recently created this calculator and after a few refinements it seems to be pretty close to the mark. Give it a crack and see what you think remembering it’s only designed for non slicks and standard transmission use not after market C3’s or C4’s etc…!
Merely a guide and a bit of fun it will never be spot on… (E.g. some people can’t drive ha-ha)

You'll probably find that your car has between 260 - 265 rwkws! Not uncommon to see some FG T's & G6E's exceeding factory figures!

There was no selection for AU, so I chose BA xr6T. Gave me a best of 13.87 @ 102.4mph. I would be over the moon with this if this was true.

The calculator just told me 12.596 at 112.83 mph. Sounds about right if the right grip is available
