Im gonna guess 12.35 with a 1.72 60 ft.
Be sure to do very long burnouts on the nittos and don't be afraid to lower the tire pressure down. Otherwise your running on street tires. Should be in the 1.6x's. Big burnouts and I would go with 15psi and adjust from there. Of course, make sure your comfortable with doing that first.

If you're any good hitting those gears I would think around 12.2. A lot of variables in that though. Have fun.
