Isn't there an equation to calculate the horsepower per pound?

Total curb weight/HP.

The xA comes out to roughly 22-23 lb/hp.

Same thing. HP = power, lb = weight.

Just dividing pounds by the horsepower, which is dividing the weight by the power, and the answer is the power to weight ratio. 22-23 lb. :1 HP
