0-60 = ((weight in kilograms) / (bhp * .9))

This works out in my case to about 4.19. I would say my estimate was close if not perfect.
Sorry about the jab.....and I sure don't want to flame you......but I just don't believe it.

With slicks, you have a mid 12 sec car...a far cry from the Vette'* mid 11'* without slicks.

By that formula the Vette, at 3140 lbs and 505 hp compared to your 3800 lbs and 423 hp doesn't add up, RWD or not. :?

Sure your (2nd gear dyno'd) torque number at 527 ft-lb is higher than the Vette'* 470 ft-lb rating and I sure would like to believe your 0-60 time is similar but I just can't believe it.

My guess at your 0-60 would be closer to 4.7 sec.

That'* still dam quick for a Bonne and you should be very proud.
