Speedo has gotta be way off, it said 170. Pulled red line in 6th so easy I tried to shift. Took a pic of speedo but its blurry, windy behind windshield. Fun fun fun!

At that speed, you thought it would be a good idea to pull out your phone and take a picture!? Wow...

Yes stock gearing, gentle rolling hills on interstate helped I'm sure. Saw 187 on the Blackbird but I think it was only good for 180.

193 DEGREES? I don't get it? Are you talking about speed?

Engine temp was 193°, it was about 85° ambient. A guy in a very cool yellow mustang had been behind me. He came around and nailed it. One thing lead to another
