Regarding my gearing, 120kmh is almost always 4000rpm. I currently have about 4mm left on my tyres, so there might be a 1-2% difference when compared to new ones or trashed ones.

The highest speed I have reached is 267kmh, which was right at 8500rpm. No more power!

Assuming your 6th gear is similar in overall gearing to mine, being able to rev 1000rpm less will definitely hurt your top speed.

That's 166MPH for those on this side of the pond/

And I still got passed by a Boxster S!

Exactly 5113.5km on the Ring (243.5 laps) according to my records
