Trapped 130 whats my real HP about?


We went to the track this weekend and the best MPH I can get is always around 130. Here is my time slip I'm in the left lane. Car is 2.3L 6466 running 30-32lbs or so on E62. The rev limiter is set to 8000 and I bounced it in every gear so with better driving 10's should not be a problem to hit but I'd like to get in the low 10's or even hit some 9"s to be competitive at the track.

Using the weight in that dyno run, calculator puts you at 600whp.

However, if you are banging off the limiter, you are losing trap speed.

Okay so more like 600whp Mustang Dyno. I raced it a few times now and its always right around 130. I'm sure a better driver could probably get a few more MPH out of it.

I must be a really ****ty driver then. People are telling me I should be trapping much higher. I've only gone 3 times but each time I've trapped right about 130mph. Looking at the slip is looks like I'm not gaining the mph after 1,000ft?

I trapped a best of 134 with 510whp on a dynojet. Mostly trapped 130-132 though. the 134 was just a great run.
