I can spin any tire short of ET Streets at wide open throttle on the
strip with my lowly 400 foot pounds of torque and 2.73 gears. My
thoughts are to get the stickiest tires on the planet, gear it as low as
possible without spinning, stage, floor it, hold on tight! I've been up
to 140 before and still had room to accelerate and 75 mph is 1900 rpm in
4th. 1st is a *little* low since I'd like to be at about 2100 rpm at 75
mph for better cruise mileage, but I'm not going to screw with it to get
200 rpm. I'll just drive faster ;)
