Do you always use extreme cases to prove your point??

A full blown race guy trying to refine his combination can make good use of the information your program provides since it has more adjustment on the input data .. but what percentage of guys looking for information full blown race only cars?

As for the truck hitting the number we will find out finishing the tune on one now to head to dyno soon...it's biggest problem is not mph it's traction since its street driven he did not want to backhalf the truck ..

So on traction in your program how do you decide what to put in as a value?

I have a 4200 pound Monte Carlo that's getting a 600 HP engine with a manual 5 speed transmission but is only got 275 rear tires and stock suspension my guess is again traction is a problem so 60 ft will be low and mph high for the ET without running it can your program spit out a ET? Again how do you guess ahead of running it what traction will do to the ET?

Look at the data points, where the density of dots is high the program works ok for what it is (prediction trap speed given hp and mass )
