What is the weight of a 95 Q45 with a full tank of gas and what is the drag coefficient? A friend of mine just got a Passport G Timer and I wasn’t sure what the weight and drag was. I did one run with it. With the snow tires I had on my Q and there was some gravel under my wheels, I didn’t get the best take off, but I got a 0-60 of 8.4 seconds. I know it’s a little slow, but I also had about 800lbs of people in the car. I’m hoping next time I try it out, I will get a better start. I need the weight and drag numbers to get accurate HP readings. I guessed on the weight and it was saying that my peak HP was about 188. That has to be wrong. This is a cool little gadget. Maybe you guys should check it out.
