Yeah 3100 with me in it. Im only 160 so that helps. but my et's are kinda slow for what weight im at. I need to pick up 12mph to where John and Tom are.

I have bigs and skinnies on mine, the front rim maybe spins one full circle. i shift at 6200 because im sure it drops off at 6000, and I want to hit the powerband on the next gear. I have a converter now, so maybe I can get away with 6000. Im almost full boltons now.

reduce weight or a bit more power, 1.6 60 is decent for your car imo

Im willing to yank almost anything out to break 3000 raceweight, not to mention 12.0
