It was my first time driving my car 150 miles with my newly built 1915cc on a 100 degree weather. Considering cruisin W/O a freeway flyer tranny my car did pretty good at 75mph 4000rpm for a straight hour. It was more relaxed at 3800rpm at 70 mph and the top speed was 95mph at 4300rpm. (185-65-15 tires)
So to all of you that run long trips all the time what speed/rpm do you cruise?
My ideal speed/rpm would be 85-90mph at 3500-3600rpm.
What are your thoughts?
