    H.P. to weight

    1750 lbs to go 8.90 et needs 589hp at the flywheel and about 491h.p. at the rear tire, I hope this helps. There are a lot of other factors but this will get you close.

    Or you'll need 1000HP if you're on the throttle stop for 3 seconds.......lol. Here is a pretty interesting HP calculator I came across a while back, although it took a little to figure out how it works.
