You just wasted about an hour of your life. How about Porsche 911 GT2 500+ hp, ~3000 lb. Wow! That one really blows the rest out of the water!

and also, it's not hp/lb.. its lb/hp. 2.5's are about 15 pounds/1 hp.

I did it for cars in the range of 250~350 and that I wanted to buy... How bout a McLaren F1? How bout a Ferrari F50? How bout an imaginary car!? Like I said, I was bored and had nothing to do. What's your problem man?

and ALSO, it's whatever I want it to be... As long as both values are valid, I can do the ratio however I want. Besides, it's power-to-weight, not weight-to-power. Power-to-weight measures efficiency. Weight-to-power measures INEFFICIENCY. Measuring inefficiency in order to reduce weight is for the engineers at car R&D departments; for buyers, you rank them in terms of how many horses push a pound. I never wanted to include 2.5 S in the list because it's sub-200.

Bottom line.. Lots of hate buddy.. What's the matter? Mommy didn't hug you enough?

here's a table of all the performance cars, you can click the columns titles to order it by each category you want. (the important one being the power to weight ratios, and DFD)

Most times if the site is legit, it got flagged for crapware after getting compromised and hosting malware. Takes forever to get off those blacklists.
