Default FAO anyone with CTS/Gearboxmans gear ratio program- FAVOUR!

ie this one- http://www.gearboxman.co.uk/inforatios.html

FANTASTIC bit of kit, but my Excell, alas, i deleted it

Can someone quickly find out what the speed would be at 6000rpm with a gear ratio 0.62, final drive ratio of 4.11, and 265/35x18 tyres.

1min job, if only i could run the program

Ah but Steven dear boy, don't forget the drag from the tyres, drivetrain, wind etc

Just because you may have said gear ratios and final drive, doesn't mean you'll have the power to pull those speeds

Yada yada yada

PMSL@Russell Nice to see your still around

220mph is possibly pushing it a step to far, but over 200 is easy done, and thats what i wanted really, and this damn low revving twin turbo V8 isnt really meant to go above 6k to last a LONG time (ie road engine style long time).

Not at Brunters like, the M5 is where its at

Or the maybe the Cheltenham inner ring road past Wetherspoons, who knows
