Default My cars power.

Ok, so i got a stock '01 AUII XR6 VCT, and i got it on the track for the first time. now im very confused at its power, and im not sure if its right or not.

On the quarter mile, it was beaten by a V6 '97 holden VS by about a quarter of a cars length.

However i beat a V4 '06 Mitsubishi lancer by about half a cars length. The same holden also beat the lancer by half a cars length.

I then used a little gadget a friend has which records your quarter mile, apparantely the car has 94KW, dont know if it meant actual or rear wheel, i did the quarter mile in 16.34 seconds with a reaction time of 0.962 and i reached 145km/h, it also records alot of other things like graphs and such about your quarter mile which i can post if anyone wants to see.

Does it look like my car has considerably less power then it should? because im a little confused at the figures, if so i would really consider trading it in before i put much more money into it.
