The hi stall should trim the 60' down a lot and tenths at the 60 give a 14 easy.

Just bumping up his post count probably. Congrats on the time, Id love to see a slip for it, just to see the 60's and so on. What RPM in what gear did you cross the line in?

Mathematicly with 4.11's and 225/60R16 or 235/45R17 tyres you are pulling 5250 at 92mph. The gearing is little low for a stock cam car as it's past its peak. You have to be carefull with gearing for the strip as the low 4.11 feels better off the line but in third at the the far end you need max power to beat the wind resistance.
You may get a better time with a stally and 3.9 even 3.7 with a manual.

When Jon Bays talks....

He wrote an article on aufalcon.com some years ago on gearing,tyre sizes, and rpm. The article has since gone but Jon sure knows his stuff!!

The people who will doubt what you say are just people who think there car is great, and are jealous because they cant back up there claims of there "supercars", lol.
Your time is 100% believable, dont let the doubters put you down, look at my time, they are very close, with the only difference in our setups is you have diff gears, and I dont. Your time is good, the stall will push you into the 14's easy as, as long as you can get traction, I hope you have an LSD, otherwise, you will have probs.
I dont have an LSD, and have to get the tyres under 27PSI to get traction, as there is only one trying for it, and I have 235's on the back.
