You're going 120MPH on the track and you downshift to 2nd?

Man...that sucks. Good time for some mods. Maybe check out an InlinePro stroker kit.

Damn how did you get all the way to 2nd? even 4th would be enough to over-rev it at 120mph right? Either way like negcamber said good time to get a stroker kit or a built motor now.
