Max speed in gears?

I've had my S2000 up to 243kms / hr which equates to about 153mph in US terms.
Still had about 700 to the redline so reckon she's capable of about 250kms/hr or 156 mph.
Ran out of road in the Northern Territory of Australia where we have no speed limits and lots of roos, cows and sheep to avoid.
Unfortunate part of that trip was the engine shit itself and last reports form Honda tell me it was a cracked piston - not happy !
Now awaiting the verdict on engine replacement and how long I'll have to wait.

I have had my MY-2001 to 140+ at redline in 5th. As I was keeping my attention on the Montana Interstate I didn't get a final read, perhaps 141-143. As I am somewhat of a pussy, my right hand wouldn't leave the wheel for 6th. It was not long after that I ran out of road. The rest of the trip was void of appropriate stretches for another attempt. Oh well, next time I am there..................
