0-60 & 1/4 Mile Calculators

With all the recent talk about both of these performance figures, I found these fun little toys. Now obviously they're not exact and don't take into consideration different gearing and other variables, but they give a pretty good estimate of your cars performance and something to shoot for. I had some fun with it. My 0-60 estimate was 3.85 and my 1/4 mile estimate is 12.10 which seems a little faster than what I'd estimate, but if I could put those numbers down, I'd be pretty happy!

After hundreds of passes down the strip, I can tell you those things are not accurate. But yes, Scott..I agree they are fun to play with.

My car is 3600 +/- lbs and roughly 500 crank hp and calculator says 1/4 et of 11.85 and I actually ran 11.91 this is pretty close. I agree though that some guestimates will be off much more than this.
