Assuming that you have a standard TH400 with 2.48, 1.48, and 1.00 gears, according to my calculations you should run 4.56. That should have you crossing the finish line right at about 6400 RPM. (Right now you are crossing it at about 5700)

SLR 11.3088
Gear Ratio: 4.56
Tire Diameter 32
Shift RPM 6400
Weight 3200
