well its on a dyno, pretty easy to max out that way, lol

didnt really seem like there was much load on the dyno either, it spun up way too quickly.

I was thinking the same thing. I guess when you take Aerodynamic Drag and resistance out of the picture, our cars can hit a pretty decent top speed

thats because of no drag. I've taken my car to 7800 rpms in 6th and only got to 150mph.

Dyno "top speed" is a bit of smoke and mirrors. In my sig are some top speed videos that are a little more realistic.

184mph? What type of gearing did it have? Doesn't stock AP1 gearing top out at around 168MPH? Did it rev higher than stock?
