| Just doing a little early research for next season - going to be getting some lightweight wheels/DR's for the strip and so I'll be experimenting with some different launch rpm's, traction permitting of course. So it'd be good to know the stall speed as an upper limit beforehand.

| I don't think stall speed is applicable to the 7G gearbox, since there is a torque converter lockup clutch in every gear. |

| All automatics have a specified torque convertor stall speed - no other way the car could start from a dead stop! Think of trying to start a manual without first disengaging/slipping the clutch - same analogy for an automatic's TC. Yes it (any TC for any car) may have a lock up feature at specific speeds/throttle setting, but none of them lock up with the car's speed at 0.
