I wanna say 115ish for redline in 4th. I guess I'll have to check it, assuming it ever stops raining here.

No... redline in 4th with 373's is around 120, maybe a little more.

If you wern't reading or can't seem to understand....

he was asking if top of 1st is 33mph, top of 2nd is 58, top of 3rd is 79, top of 4th 100.

I don't get how you could think he was saying 1st starts out at 33mph when we all know from a dead stop your at 0mph. and how do you figure that he was thinking beginning of 4th is 100mph when the top of 3rd in his figure was only 79mph?

I went back and seen you were talking about someone else that was confused but also it didn't look like people were being fully understood.

redline in 4th is more like 105mph. final answer. also, tire size must be taken into consideration. my tires are slightly shorter than stock so i turn more rpms at lower speeds.

How can you say that? I see in your sig you have 373's. I redline at a shade over 120 in 4th. If I let it rev I can hit 125.
