well, since the people around here are jerks and won't tell me, i don't know the weight they were 15 inch good years on a slight lift kit the hill was a slight 10% grade just dry pavement all the way
thats all the info i know, and the weight would be a normal ford ranger XL nothing special

Ok, with a coefficient of friction of .75 (info I find says tires vary from ~.6 to .8) and not taking into account the incline, I get ~31 mph. With a lower Cf, he would have been going a bit slower - not much, but slower none the less.
