I've run this formula all the way up and down the national record pages in ND from Comp to Stock and you'll find when you start comparing numbers it's more likely that the formula is more accurate than not. It does not work on the Funny car / Top Fuel classes.
The resistance is when somebody is convinced either they or their hero can't be off track.
My best ET / MPH in SS/H has been 10.02/132in D/S 10.55/125 and in A/FS 13.26/99.66, each being off by only a few hundreths from the formula. I don't give up until I can meed the goal. It also shows if you are trying to meet an ET goal that it sometimes takes more MPH which equates to HP (given no aerodynamic changes being utilized).
So enough about this formula, the bottom line is anybody that's been around drag racing for awhile knows a 146 MPH run is quite capable of a very low 9.20 ET.
