You mean the little yellow one? LOL. Guess that's something I never pay any attention to. It'll keep on revving past that, so who cares. In fact, let's take the top speed right up to 6250rpm, the fuel cutoff, so I can actually go 256!!
Yep, that's the McLaren F1 in my rear view mirror.
All the people claiming serious top end here are yappin about what their speedo says, and what their buddy's speedo says.
Now, this is what I'm saying. Your speedo's are wrong. Even worn tires can affect your speedo readings about 100mph.
Say you have a stock 225/60 R15 on a Mustang. Go to a 245/50 R15 and you'll read 5mph fast at 130. Now say that 245 is a little worn, you read 7 fast. Plus your speedo was off by 2mph at 60. Now you're reading 11mph fast. Get the trend? At this point, you're going 119 when it says 130.
There are quite a few 4 bangers that will do 120, but if they aren't putting out better than 140hp, they best be super streamlined. If they aren't putting out over 120, they aren't getting anywhere near that speed.
I always love it when people say, throw the physics out the window!! I can prove math and science are wrong.
Yeah... Okay, next you'll be telling me people can fly thru the air cause you're wearing really high quality shoes.
