ET S 13.656 S

3. Solve for the vehicle’s estimated rear wheel HP:

HP MSA 332.17

Building from the prior example, let’s correct the estimated rear
wheel HP based on current local measured weather conditions of
73° F, absolute pressure of 25.88 in Hg, and 14% relative humidity,
then calculate the estimated Horsepower again.

5. There is no need to re-enter the Vehicle Weight or the 1/4 ET as

they are currently in the calculator’s memory from the previous
example.

6. Solve for the vehicle’s estimated MSA HP, Corrected HP, and
