It does have a very slight decline, but i had never seen anything higher than 158 until 20 minutes ago.

I had to pass 3-4 cars (3lanes each direction).

tires are fairly new so speedo shouldn't be off tooooo much.

Some of you seem to be forgetting that scot is a maniac. Please reserve your admonishments for non-maniacal people.

Shaner - I had the top up.
Greg - I am still on my first S2000.
Sunchild - aren't you supposed to still be at work

I agree... no track outside of a huge banked loop will
allow you the distance to open it up.

I just switched to Royal Purple oil, so....maybe that helped?
