Huh....do you have comprehension problems. I think so.

Sepno the gear calculater is a little off. I'm running the same height tire and was maxxed out at 122.xx mph @ 6800 when I had 4.10's. You might want to throw 3.90's into your choice list.

So you must be around 112mph with a stock height tire @ stock rpm with not much runnout left. The gear only helps getting you moveing. With a 10bolt you can really never utilize the gear, because the 10bolt will break.

So you ran the same trap with different gears? What was your rpm limit?

my vote goes for 433 if he's getting a 9". what is the gearing difference in the trans he has vs a t56 that comes in an fbody?

and why are you guys trying to run a stock cam car out to 6500? to avoid shifting? i wouldn't trust those stock valvesprings on my lawn mower at that rpm.

4.33 would only work if he had a 28" tire. I try to keep my street and drag set-up as close as possible....sometimes it's the exact same. When you go with enough gear like your talking then his street set-up would be **** unless he rode around on a 28" drag tire all the time. You know all that gear takes power to turn.

You do if your gonna trap with me (I trapped 130 and change today...I guess I need to change my sig again). There has been plenty of street races where I've shifted to 5th.

If any thing it was heavier than the last time I ran it. I had 3/4 tank of gas. Should've been about 3200 race weight....my aero mods are starting to come into balance I guess.

If it doesn't look right or sound right, it probably isn't right.

Here's the slip. I have plenty more if you would like to see them.


I ran less mph in the 1/8 today than usual but more in the 1/4.....and I dunno why. I did do a couple more aero mods but nothing that should've made that much difference....good air? maybe. More gas in it ?? 3/4 tank . Sometimes I can't make heads or tails of why it does what it does. All I know is what it does.
