100lb rule of thumb

[Paul Merolla]

According to T-Ped on last night's broadcast from Pomona, every 10 lbs is worth a tenth!! If I could quit eating Taco Bell, I'd be 1.20 under in no time.

That was close for my old Jr Stocker. Depends on HP levels. I think Tony should do some research, instead of quoting 40 year beliefs. My car, 100 = 6 hundredths, in decent air, seven in like 4000' + DA. 50lbs is a pretty consistant 3 hundredths any time..

Paul, That's some serious weight to et ratio. If I stopped eating eastern NC BBQ I would be right there with you on the 1.20 under!

My initial thought was on a lower hp (less than 500) and heavy car it might be more than .1 per 100#. Wanted to experiment last year, but chased too many demons. Hoping to validate when weather breaks.

seems to me if you're eating toxic bell, you WOULD be 1.20 under...

On my R/SA jeep 90 lbs. is .15 (18 Lbs. / HP - 3230 @175HP);


So less HP or higher weight will be more than 1 tenth.
