You're assuming a 1 to 1 ratio and that's incorrect...remember you're still covering ground while on the stop. And your RPM on the stop needs to be up in the ~4200 range. Think the others are right with 2.50 being close. Danny and his son can get you close too...better do the test and tune, you'll need 2-3 laps to even get close to your ratio.
