John, this is my simple way of determining HP given another hp:
HP2 = HP1 (new speed^3/old speed^3)
where HP2 is the new horsepower desired
HP1 is the old horsepower needed to run at a given speed
in this case HP2 = HP1 (211*211*211/200*200*200) = HP1 (1.17424)
or it will take about 17.4% more horsepower.
Remember HP is a function of the cube of speed.
