Power to weight ratio of your car?

Actually almost ALL people in this thread will be using book weights which are done to an EU Standard which dictates that the weight includes a driver, a set amount of luggage and a full tank of fuel.

Very few people will be using weight without driver as it's not really an easily located figure. Even if you drive your car onto a weighbridge as some of us are done you are sat in it so get a figure including driver.

My post about the thread being flawed and then sarcastic one was a response to someone having a dig at a bikers figures as he had no rider included, then someone being overly excited at mediocre performance

I then thought it worthwhile mentioning that most people here have not done the same... sure it doesn't make much odds on a 2 ton car, but if your car weighs just under a ton for example, you will be coming on 10% out on your figures. Of course none of you will see the flaws as you are all too busy massaging each others egos.

End of day this is a car thread, though many bikers have posted in it (inc me)... as someone just said, anyone can go out and buy a bike with crazy high figures, why many of you don't man up and do the same I'll never know, rather than sit on interweb getting mildly orgasmic at 167.567876655 bhp/tonne

Ban me, seriously, I really couldn't give a monkeys :), there is a bike forum, but it's a dull place full of people called 'dave' and trevor' and it's far more fun posting in here


Anyway, best get back on topic, it maybe flawed as a thread, but it's still a good read, just don't get over excited at anything less than 200 bhp/tonne, coz it just isnt

why would we ban you for owning a bike...? this thread is in the car section of motors, there for is about CARS.... yes its great you have 1trillion bhp per kg or whatever but thats for a thread in the BIKERS forum. sigh.

oh and who is massaging our egos? Why do we have to man up to go and buy a bike? I don't want, and never have wanted a motorbike. If you are happy with 2 wheels fine, but i dont really give a ****.

What weight/mods is your car, its way up the list!

Indeed, i've calculated that wrong! Should be 178/1032kg = 172bhp/T

GAY

The car has just been remapped, but because i don't know what power it has increased by i will keep it at 178, but in a few days the car will weigh 982kg so it will be 181bhp/T
