Default what kind of trap speeds with 845 rwhp?

assuming im a decent driver, not the best and not completely shitty, what would you estimate I would be able to trap with my car?

lets say 4000 lbs in a 6 speed.

140-145

If I remember correctly Mighty Mouse hit 141 with 775 rwhp, and 144 with 900+ with the PT88.

Mine went 149 and some change with 847rwhp at 3,750lbs, 1.49-1.51 60ft.

Traction also helps my trap speeds, on street tires and a 1.9-2.2 60ft it will only trap between 140-143 (at 3,820lbs).

I've seen 100-hp less run mid nines and require a parachute, in a 3600lb 94 LT1 Formula on 10.5" slicks, and a friends 3000lb 59 vette with 330 n/a ci dynoing 763 hp run an 8.70 @ 154mph. He did that at HRP and backed it up with a 8.80@151 at Ennis. The 8.70 held the world record for his class for several years....
