Default 9.9x trap speed?
What is a typical trap speed for a 9.9x pass? I know the answers will vary a lot. I'm trying to get a general idea.

Please list engine, trans, power adder, weight, and rear end gear used.

On the nitrous my last motor went 10.4@136 spinning.

Was told that about a 9.8-9.9 hooking.

Car is heavier then stock and a TH-400/12 bolt. 3.73 with 18 inch tall tire.

I'm guessing about 145. If it is an all motor car maybe a little slower because it will take off a little faster than a turbo car usually the turbo cars get a lot more speed on the other end.

I was figuring mid 130's. On spray I went 10.38@127.8. Hopefully 132 will get me there.
