How fast is your Sammy/Tracker?
« on: March 07, 2011, 09:09:46 PM »
Im looking for a poll type answer....with specifics....not guesses. So if you have added bigger tires please use a GPS or something to determine your speed. Speed also figured on flat ground, and a max time of 1 minute. Please list in the following format

Year/Vehicle: 1988 Samurai
Engine: 1.6l, 16v
Tire Size: 32"
Gearing: unknown
MAX Speed: 60mph

just curious as to where everyone else is sitting with their rides

Tire Size:  33x12.5"
T-Case:    6.5:1
