do you not understand that you must ACCELERATE to top speed?
acceleration is any change in velocity......Im tellin you dude....I used to think the same thing until me and several buddies decided to try it......we would race to top speed and the lighter person always pulled on the top end.......we played musical quads and it was the same outcome everytime.......


we sound like a couple 6 year olds argue'n like this.....LoL

 

Here is the math to work out top speed.

Aero Horsepower: Drag x Speed or HP at the wheels

Frontal Area: Amount of Frontal Area (large hood scoops, mirrors and bumper openings add to this and decrease your top speed.

Cd: Coefficient Drag.

Speed: In MPH

Aero Horsepower = 0.000007 x Frontal Area x Cd x Speed3

Show me where weight has any effect.

I found it on the following web site.

I will do it as soon as I get one of my friends to be brave and do it......
I'll let y'all know....
