All I can say is its real cool. I'm just about dialed in with my HP numbers from a dyno dynamics dyno. I had to mess around with the weight of the car but 370whp was way to high so lowered it to get more intune with my DD runs. It says my car makes 1.42G's when accelerating. IF you got an Iphone Itouch real cool app at only $13.

that is the real weight of this car? I have been messing around with numbers trying to get close to my DD numbers. As soon as i get close to 342hp i get another reading of 375hp? than another at 430hp????

Don't just use the spec weight of the car, actually get it weight on a scale and then add your body weight, that will give you more realistic numbers versus just putting in the weight from the specs off the website or etc.

1+

weight of driver, maybe add some additional weight for gas. It'll only be as accurate as the numbers you put in. Its estimating the times based on the information you put in.

From what I understand, I think the weight only has to do with the HP estimates that Dynolicious gives you. It seems to be a really gross assumption.

However, the 0-60, 1/4 miles etc. times will be the same regardless of the weight you put in.
