max gear speeds
 

hey 8ters,

so i've done the search, but my browser is being stupid and whenever i try the search it gives me some stupid server error...can someone hook me up with the max speed for each gear again?? the only one i remember is 1st 39mph lol...thanks homies

I just saw this in a thread last week... Im sure if you searched a little you could find it. I remember it specifically because the top speed for 5th is just 1mph slower than 6th cuz of the 1:1 ratio.

5th gear is 156mph :)

well now you know half of them. 1st, 5th and 6th. Im sure you can find the rest :)

Also helps to look back a couple of years. Most everything has been discussed before.

1st 9000k 39
2nd 9000k 65
3rd 9000k 89
4th 9000k 124
5th 9000k 147
6th 7650k 148+

Road & Track test panel data:
