Turns out that it gets a bit complicated because of all of the options in WinPep8.  We had to play with the Dyno operator's computer at Daytona for it to spit out the correct data files.  Roman will update us on whether he can come up with some instructions that our competitors can use on their own WinPep8 programs to export the correct data files. Otherwise, the printed out exports can always be used to manually calculate the Avg HP numbers.

Can you add a link to a sample input file that works for the calculator?  The WinPEP7 instructions aren't right and I can't figure out exactly what the calculator is looking for.

The calculator instructions are correct. DM me you WinPEP 7 file.

I just did it.  I recall the instructions for winpep7 don't specify changing the graph to display rpm instead of speed before export.  The default was speed.

There was a change not long ago to the average HP calc method.  Is the online calculator up to date?

The calculator has been updated a while ago.

All Dyno graphs should have X-axis as the RPM. It is clear in the video. I don't see a DM from you.

Just ran it again and it worked OK.  Not sure what I was doing wrong before.

Figured it out.  If I use a file extension of .csv instead of .txt, the calculator doesn't parse the data correctly.

WinPep7 is .txt extension. WinPep8 .csv extension is expected.
