Saying your only going to go 120 is the stupidest crap ever lol, its not going to save your life going 120 vs 150 vs 200.. your still gonna die unless some extraordinary situation occurs.

My advice...

dont go over 60 on a "dot" road and that will be your best bet for safety lol.

I hit a stationary vehicle doing 60mph head on with my 95 sixxer when I had it, girl was making an illegal turn and panicked and stopped dead when she saw me, I walked away lucky with only some cuts and bruises and a totalled car, no seatbelt either lol.

your car sounds and looks bad man, i'd go no lower than 4:30's, it's good to get through first gear, but you want to make it count as well. hope whatever you go with works out!
