Here is my calculation. I eliminated the climbing resistance portion of the calculation and plotted it in excel (pull was done on relatively flat road so it should be ok). I do not have a good method to measure wind speed so I assumed that as 0.

The peak value was 219 RWKW

You are the first person in 8 years to use the openly provided information I developed as listed on my site congrats.

While the power is factual it is not hollywood in nature but it does match reality and cross checks, its a good tool to use to validate performance increases as all items balance, increased power = decreased times to and distance to perform any given test.

R.I.P Hugh McInnes (the Turbo Pioneer) who taught me all of this back before the internet !
