power to weight = weight / power ( which gives you weight to power ratio )

Zee, we're of course assuming the ratios are the same, aerodynamics also play a great role as speeds increase... but again, we're not getting that indepth.
15.4:1 IE, 15.4lbs to every whp.
That is a pretty decent p/w ratio.
My Civic had a 16.6:1 ratio. She was a porky bitch. @ 2615lbs.
From what I read your friend's Teg weighs 2643lbs.
Now at 146.7whp and 2643lbs... we get.
2643/146.7
18.016:1 Weight to power ratio.
Not nearly as good as yours IF you have the same whp as him. You would dominate his car.

i always dominate his car. not bragging or anything but it always happends. so basically divide power and weight. so i take it as the higher the # the better?
