Actually once you use it twice it is totally easy to work with.
You just have to figure out a max Gforce for your vehicle at the strip. I just went to smokemup.com and did a 60' to Gforce conversion and rounded it off to say 1.2 which should be near a 1.6 60' or so. The frontal area is the tough one for me since I couldn't find figures for a fullsize GM truck. Instead I used a round figure of 25 since the fullsize is bigger than the s10 Blazer.

Anyone want to take a stab at plugging in my numbers, I got lost with that program:

3.50 gear
28x10.5 slick
T400 gearing
5000 stall
shifting at 7000

Okay. Using the 3450 lb raceweight and 1.5 for maximum G, which gives you a 60 foot of 1.439 along with a 0.34 cd and 21.6 ft^2 frontal area, you get a pass between 9.294 and 9.45 seconds at about 146.6 mph. I used 690 for average horsepower; I guessed that you get max torque around 5000 rpm and averaged that power with your maximum.
