Weight to ET question?

Is there a formula to determine et based on a riders weight? I weight butt naked at180#. Suited up 197# with 60'between 1.53 to 1.7's on my bad days. Where should I et at say 1.7 60'? I know, I need to lose some weight

I dont know about a formula but you need to have HP or MPH to find the ET.

Every 25-30lbs is about a tenth, you knew that, right?


Every .01 quicker in the 60' should equal something like .02 or .03 better in overall ET, or so I've heard. (and that's assuming the rest of the run is exactly like whatever you're comparing it to, which is damn difficult for me!)

Every 1 MPH better in trap speed, (assuming 1/8th was the same) is about .02 quicker ET.

Here's a handy ET/HP/MPH calculator:
