    Had mine flat out today with all the mods and 35 rear 58 mph.

    says who?
    you watching this vid ??

    I don't live too far from there, its the GSP south.
    65 is average, 75 avg in the left lane.
    I know it well, and for some reason, slow traffic stays in the center lane. And look where he was the entire vid, center lane with cars passing him from both the left AND the right...

    I know what the comments say, hold 65-70, 80 bursts, but i don't buy it. And thats NOT what was going down in the video anyway.
    ccw uses a 11.5kw 167fmm just as our does, and no tuning in the world is going to buy much more than that.

    he might have been doing 65 but the slow center lane doesn't do anymore than that, but i think we could hold that on a flat with barone or dan's gearing...


    and for all i know they may be using an over ambitious speedometer just like ours...
