Don't shift into overdrive(5th) stay in 4th like 95mustanggt said. You will lose speed/power because you will no longer be going 1:1 drive. Which it is in 4th.
But if you change your gears you could use fifth gear to race in. My Cobra will go 147 MPH in 4th with stock gears. It's a 1996. But I won't go above 120 MPH. It is not worth it to go any faster. Even that speed scares the piss out of me.
