Reply to "RPM for highway cruising"

Jack CrosbyHot Springs, AR, VS RabyTypeIV

Joe--I have wondered about some top speeds for Speedsters.

My chart shows 143 MPH in 4th gear doing 6,500 rpms. I would never do that in the car myself. The fastest I've gone was on the way to Morro Bay last spring and went to 90 a couple of times. It was smooth and not light feeling in the front but cheatin' death ain't my style.

I wonder how fast others have gone in a Speedster?

This is NOT a highjack but it's at least more thread drift, I guess.
