We would need to know how tall the tires are, or what series(255,275, ect). Just a guess, I'd say you have 3:91's, or 4:10's in the rear.

The equation for gear ratio with an auto trans is:


axle ratio = (RPM * tire diameter) / (MPH * 355)


(substitute 340 for 355 with manual trans)


The goal never changes - Stop the 60' timer with your back tires
