Anyone got some math that weighs in wind resistance, torque curve, tranny, shift rpm, gearing?



It probably would have been pretty close, none the less.

So even if he does get anywhere near 500 or even does get 500. It doesnt matter cause the 4l60 sure as hell aint going to hold up. we all know that

The math is correct as long as the truck doesn't stop pulling after the 1/8th LOL

If it makes anyone feel better my 12.33@110mph run was a 7.87@87.88mph 1/8th mile.
