Carrera GT = .198 X 3,000 = 594hp
599 = .166 X 3721 = 617hp
SLR McLaren = .164 X 3900 = 639hp

STi BRZ = .1 X 2800 = 280
Your math IS correct, as well as your formula. But you're reading your own results incorrectly. The BRZ in your chart has 1/10th of 1 HP for every pound, while the Saleen has two and a half times more HP for every pound.
