doesnt consider gears, traction, aerodynamics, or anything...just weight and power...no way it is accurate

It said I should run 12.3. But the HP it I should have was about +20hp from what I have.

It says it's accurate from a physics standpoint. That is probably correct as power is simply work per unit time, but it gives you peak horsepower, but what it really calculates is average horsepower and I assume guesses the peak horsepower off of that.

This would probably explain why it gives a higher value then what you have, code. It might assume more of a difference between peak and average horsepower than what you have on yours. It might also be that you are a little off on your total weight.
