You should be able to find videos of this being done if you search the archives...

You can also try to find a big hill...

Hit 150 and still had rpm to go, and a lot of open road ahead but I slowed it down.

Were the tires bigger in diameter than stock? According to the gear calculator, MY00-03 with OEM size tires at 9,000 rpm's is 167 mph.

I could tell you how fast "Electra" can go but why brag? Why not come out to Nevada and go as fast as you want....twice a year....with the Highway Patrol rooting you on?
