The DE on the other hand hits redline at around 7200~ for the rev-up.

When I did my run I was in 5th gear at 160 mph.

my 5th gear ended at 173mph 8k rpm.
Funny the digital speedometer stops reading after 160.
But hey it takes awhile to get to 170.
(the speed was read by a navi, i also found the my speedometer is skewed with approx 2mph more)

You might find something in Columbia for that price and you'd see at least 5-6 Zs a day pass you on the streets. Most of the people I know looking for tenants are single women and they don't want male tenants in their homes. I'll keep an eye out if you're serious though...

(I don't even see how you could get caught at that speed :O)

What kinda car? Or was it a motorcycle? I read an article a while back of some guy on a streetbike who got a ticket for like 225 in a 65 or something like that.
