CYBERMONKEY - well if you look on it it will give you an expected quarter mile time of your car due to its weight and power.
dont forget to add your weight to the car weight.
if you know what 1/4 mile time your car produced then it will tell you the approx bhp. if you know the bhp it will work out an expected 1/4 time.

for a RWD car. the transmission losses are different for RWD and FWD
