Top Speeds for ITS?

Yeah, but don't forget: your car "handles". It's obvious that in a tete-a-tete battle you'd kick my butt! The CRXs certainly did!

20.0 seconds, 121.16 mph, GPS-based data acq-derived...

Just to add salt to the wound. I don't have data, but I was bouncing off the rev limiter before braking for 7. 7000 rpm in 4th would put me at over 120 also.

LOL - you can see I ain't working too hard today by number of posts.


Show me the MPH! (it'll be lame like 120 but you don't want to say since you'd like to chuckle at the $$ wasted if I finish this thing)

Note to new racers - $6000 and counting on a car that is a questionable racer - buy a built and proven car!

"Remember that a stock speedo does not know you changed tire diameter or rear gear ratio. Great numbers for BS over beer but not real world data."



I remember back in 1995 the first time I was out in my new RX-7 w/ 5:12 and working speedo. Showing close to 160 at end of the long Memphis straight. Boy, was I excited about that! Til I thought about it.



I would think that Charlotte would yield the highest top speed - what have people done there?



Steve, we missed you at N'ville.

Missed seeing you guys Bill. Work got in the way this week and the car ate a pilot bearing in the shop. Just lacked motivation to pull it out and fix it. Didn't help that I had no spare.
