I'm not so sure how representative that chart is.
Based on some of the crappy calculators out there, it's reflecting those type of #'s.
I'll stick with my Corral calc, it's as precise as it gets for my application.
I know when I was running a 14.1@96 I had nowhere near 260 @ the wheels.
More like 210-220.
Now that I'm running a 13.5@101, I'm probably closer to 260 than 290.
Unless it's showing flywheel #'s, which I doubt, then n/m.

Oh, well then, excellent find! haha.
Weight depending, I figured I should be around 300 flywheel.
Pretty sure I was in the 250-260's before, so there ya go.
