just enter your correct values. mph x gear ratio x 336=@ then divide @ by tire height =true rpm with no slip and multiply by 1.08 for 8% 1.09 for 9% and so on to get your final rpm .
Ron thanks for the info. At times it is hard to see 7000 or 7050, but I have gotten close. Ron, who do you recomend?
