I pegged the needle at 120 in top gear.
Huh?

You pegged the needle in 5th gear and it was only 120? What kind of gearing are you running in that thing?

Fear itself, after you hit 120 how lond did it take you to reach 145? You were on I-10 coming from Baton Rouge? Everytime i go and visit family in New Orleans i always see tons of state troopers. Mabey on the 25 miles bridge over there i might try to top it out.
