top speed
coming back from Austin, there wasn't very much traffic, so I wanted to see how fast the S can go.
Got up to 154 at 8k, then rpm went up another bar and no speed increase.
Is 154 the limit or did I need to stay on it for a little while longer?
Thanks.

Interesting. I was near 8,000rpm in 6th gear in my AP2, speedo said somewhere around 151-152. I believe the 'official' top speed is 156mph.
So, the AP2 can come very, very near to it's rev limiter, but the AP1 is drag limited to it's top speed?

I had my top down when I maxxed out 5th. How fast is that anyway? I was too close to the wall and was having to brake for a slaloom coming up very quickly to look at the speedo.
