Another tool is the Hot Rod Calc which was designed by Calculated Industries and advertised on the NHRA.com homepage. It's a hand-held calculator which has pre-programmed automotive formulas that were designed for drag racers. I've found it useful to calculate basic ET predictions and horsepower estimates. It's now available from Mr. Gasket as Model 8703 for $79.95.
