Put a dab of paint on a tire and roll it and measure how far apart on the
pavement
the two dots are. Then you can figure how many wheel revolutions per mile and
multiple by 4.11 for engine revs at a true (not indicated) 60 mph for your
size
tires.
<If anybody is out there
How much fun can they POSSIBLY be having at VTR without US??? :)
