I built a spread sheet for calculating the RPM of your engine taking to account your wheel size, transmission, and gear ratio. I was trying to figure out how to attach the file so anybody can download it and I keep getting a error that say "not a valid file". Is it possible to attach an Excel Spread Sheet to a tread?
Nope. The only things you can attach are photo files and internet links. You'd have to e-mail the spreadsheet file. Can't even go via PM.Quote:

Opens as a picture with an excel extension, but the "open with" options don't include Excel for me. Maybe if one saves it and then opens it in Excel? I'm not a Google Drive user....Quote:

Here is a different method that think will work better. See if this works easier. Thanks

That one works good but the one I built allows you to select your actual transmission and will give you your RPM in each gear.Quote:

I think I will put a note in the thread that says "clicking on link will automatically download the file"
All threads are searchable, but finding the right combination of search terms that gets what you want without it being a part of 999 others is often challenging. Just my $0.02.Quote:
