Default Monster Truck Rating formula. Who wins???

Well, this is for fun. Since I collected all of the information on the MT's in the guide above, I stacked the results and created a formula to rate the Monster Trucks based on an inverse of the calculated length/width/engine size/speed/weight and cost. I wont disclose the formula since it is proprietary

Here are the ratings (from highest rating to lowest). Maybe I under estimated the Fun Factor 2! -

CEN MT2 - 1.601
TMaxx 2.5 - 1.54
Ofna Titan - 1.53
Savage S25 - 1.51
Mad Force - 1.50
Monster GT - 1.49
Mammoth (XTM) - 1.46

The math isn't perfected yet. The Mammoth's HIGH speed and lower cost is why it is so low! It offset the formula. No offense guys. The CEN is the highest because it is fast and the cost is low. I will make a better formula to calculate fairly based on the factors above in the future.
