mph and track times Can't seem to find the calculator for this that I had bookmarked so I was wondering.
Supposing I can run around 115-118mph before I bang the limiter (depending on where I set it), what kind of track times does that make me capable of if I can attain those speeds in the 1/4?
Thanks!

i dont quite understand where the rev limiter factors into this but a 115-118 mph trap speed probably puts u around low 12s to high 11s for a stick and a bit faster for an automatic.
for example: my friends A4 Z28 does 11.40s at around 120
another friends M6 WS6 does 12.40s at around 114

Did some bad calculations, and calculated myself to be rolling through the top of fourth at those speeds that's where the rev limiter came in. After I redid the math it looks like my gearing is good for closer to 130-135 or so in fourth. Thanks anyway!
