And people said I was stupid when I mentioned that the GTR's weight was one of its main assets.

Does anyone have the streets of willow comparison? Where the Corvette catches up on every tight bend but the GTR just leaves it on the straights/kinks

Well yeah but I'm also not really pressed about grammer (spite). Back on subject though I'm comfortable with the horsepower and torque levels that I have so I'm trying to cut weight keep the car grounded to the ground.

not sure if I calculated it right though

just convert your car to HP and lbs then do the calculation

e.g. 1360kg and 270kw
1360kg = 2998lbs
270kw = 362hp
Which is 8.3 lbs/HP

>>16348267
or 5kg/kw...

A 100hp+ motorcycle is pretty fast, a 100hp truck isn´t.
Power/weight and power/drag ratio are the important factors.
