Terry,
I was suprised that the car was still accelerating. I reckon I could have
wound it out to 8000rpm but I was running out of road real quick. If we get
the chance we'll wind my bro's car out in 5th with the 3.5:1 diff gears and
see how she goes. I am sure she'll rev limit in 5th because his car has a
bit more grunt than mine.
