by looking at the speedo and marking it when you cross the paint on the road?

take it to a track and see.. you can guess, speculate, think and hope all day, but a time slip will get you everything you need to know.

My truck will trap 86mph on 1/8 mile track. FACT the modular v8 on the 1/4 15-17 seconds, unless you have a f150 lightning.
