Yeah that's fast, but what can it do in 1/4 mile from an almost dead stop ??? Or how 'bout a one mile circle with only 2 single pin turns ???

Do you guys believe in the those boat speed prediction type formulas? I've never found them to be even close.
Check this out:
weight -> 10080
hp (-5% for drivetrain losses) -> 2451
top speed -> 158
plug those numbers into this calculator:

I get an efficiency constant of 320 which is higher than their highest rated cat.
