If we recreated the scene from Fast & Furious 7 and droppeda Challenger SRT® Hellcat Redeye Widebody from a C-130 aircraft at5,280 ft, how much horsepower would it take to drive past it beforeit hits the ground if you’re 1 mile away? Pro Tips Air density @sea level, 59 degrees, no wind = p = .002377 slugs/ft^3 Coefficientof drag (flat plate, NASA) = C(d) = 1.28 Weight = W = 4451 lbsGravitation constant = g = 32.2 ft/sec^2 Area = A = 197.5\"\" long x78.2\"\" wide x (1 ft^2/ 14 in^2) Vehicle falls flat, wheels 1st,straight down, at constant acceleration with no aerodynamic draguntil terminal velocity Horsepower needed to accelerate is AVERAGE- not peak 100% driveline efficiency
