    How do you figure that? What if your shift points are 6700? What about 4th gear? I have heard of guys going well over 165 though it takes a LONG stretch to get to! Our old 95/L67 car would shift into 4th at around 5500 rpm and that was in the 135ish range.

    I had mine going at 152mph on a nice straight away.

    It took a bit of time to get there once I hit 140mph she
    started to slow down, but kept climbin.
