Top speed is limited to 155 mph, Z could go faster if speed limiter was removed.

I saw some earlier threads that said the digital speedo. read out 155, but the other got up to 157, w/ a lot of room to go faster.

With the handy little pod stopwatch it took me approximately 45 seconds to go from 80mph to 155mph.

Default 180 mph?

I used the advertised drive train ratios and wheel specs in one of the speed estimators and got nearly 180 at redline in 6th. I know that this doesn't take in ALL factors (even those that NASA only knows), but how close do you think we could get?

remember at 6200 is max power, so do the ratios at 6200 vs 6600, that should be a ballpark, after that, power decreases, resistance increases, you wont go much farther then. my guess is about 165

no track is large enough to support this much speed tho. youd need a road, where youd be doing about 100mph over the limit. so does top speed really matter?
