Here's how I figured my theoretical speed at various rpm's: Mark a spot on one rear tire and roll the car so the mark touches the pavement. Mark the pavement at this point. Roll the car forward with

Here's How I calculated my speed. 1) check the tire circumference using my wife's sewing tape measure, calculate how many rotations would be required per mile. 2) with a 3.9 rear end figure the drive

Here's a good site for basic formulae if you want to build your own spreadsheet. http://users.vei.net/pscalc/formulae.htm The texashealeys site had some good online calculators, but the link I had is

You guys are doing this the hard way! Just put a GPS in the car and drive, it will tell you how fast, how far, average speed, and where you have been. Now that the "SA" is turned off accuracy will be

"C" for Circumference? I've got a better idea...just measure the circumference of your spare tire (if it's the same size as you have on your car). I bet you'll get the same measurement with less eff

Good thought Dan, but my years calibrating bicycle cyclometers suggests rather strongly that the same tire measured in the unloaded state will give a significantly different circumference when loaded

If we are going to continue this anal discussion, the rolling circumference of the tire with the car's weight applied is different than the circumference measured on your spare tire off of the car. B

If you don't mind giving up the mapping capability you can even get one in the form of a speedometer gauge. Of course Lord Lucas would then know about it once you installed it in your dash :-) Larry
