Gearbox Ratio/Speed Calculator

[Lynn Larsen]

ALL,

I threw this together to see how the G50/50 would do in my car. Then I generalized it so anyone knowing the gear & diff ratios and tire diameter of their car could use it.

Regards,
Lynn

Lynn,
If you go to the Quaife site (might only be the UK version though), they have a little program called SpeedCalc, which is free to download.

This works guys, thanks Lynn

Thanks Lynn - a very elegant & useful program (but a bit daunting when you look at what speeds come up at higher revs in 5th - just as well there is room in those door-pockets for a change of underwear !!!).

Kind Regards,

Peter D.

Very Handy, Thanks Lynn.

Nice one Lynn /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

That's very similar to one that I knocked together. As Peter said, it's fun ramping up the revs to see top speeds /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
For what it's worth, I've attached my version for your enjoyment.

Cheers

Bill.
