Hey guys, S2000 cannot do anymore that 266km/h - it's not geared to do anymore than that. When you reach 9k revs in 6th gear then your speed is 266km/h ... no matter what your speedo sais. If you pressume that you're in 6th and bouncing of the rev limiter (9,300 revs) then you'll be doing 274.9km/h ... has anyone managed to bounce on the rev limiter in 6th?

Therefore, can you (in particular swiss2k) tell me what revs you were doing ... that will tell you the speed a lot better than the speedo. Though, if your speedo indicated 274km/h then that means you were really doing just about 253km/h (worked out out from BlueS2000 8300 revs statement).
