Default Made it to Atco today

I have been waiting to run my car since the day I bought it! It was well worth the wait. I had to really granny it out of the hole, between the street tires and it being 32 degrees hooking up was not an option. Regardless I was impressed with runinng a best time of 12.3 @ 116mph for the day, and that was on a 2.07 60' time. As of now I have Kooks long tubes w/cats,GHL cat-back, and a Vortex air filter. Hopefully by the end of the month I'll have some ET streets and 4:11 rear. Not to mention a Cartec clutch, since the stock one likes to stay on the floor after every run.
I need some help though, I want to find out what RPM I will be at when I finish the quater mile with the 4:11 rear and also a 3:90 rear. Can anyone help?
thanks
J

It was dead there, there was maybe 30 people there. They run every sunday from 10 to around 4pm. I think its just time shots and a gambler race.
