If raw is 300HP and you figure in 20% loss @ the wheels for a RWD vehicle then you are looking at about 240 to the wheels. 20% is on the high side, avg is about 15, but even with 20% sapped you're still WAY above his numbers. 255 is probably about what it did to the rear wheels with the average 15% loss. Kid should have just done a tuneup!
