how much faster could i have been???

since i only ran a 15.72 at the track, i was wondering how much faster i could have been if i was shifting at the right time.

i didnt have a tach at the time and i thought i was shifting high enough, but it turns out, i was probably only taking it up to about 5200 rpm's.

how much faster could i have ran if i revved it up to peak hp? around 6000-6300 rpm's ??

with the tach hooked up today, i took it up that high and it was was still pulling all the way up till i shifted(around 6100rpms)
