or if you know your MPH at the end of a quarter mile.

HP = (MPH/234)^3 * weight in pounds

do that and then multiply by .8 because that is for perfect aerodynamics unless you have a f1 car or the likes Smile eg. supras are around .8. this calculates HP at the wheels.

also, you can twist it around and see what is the best possible MPH you can achieve if you know how much power you have.
