This is my car with 463rwhp and 409rwtq, very similar to DAVE's setup/numbers/ and dyno curve. Granted, I have alot of seat time but you get the point.

My limiter is set to 7000 in this video and I was nicking it on the shifts. The only thing that hurt my time was the slight nick of the limiter on every shift which cost me about .1.
stock rear end? sounds like a 3.90 or a 4.10 ?

excellent run!
