[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 15579868, member: 68944"] Sure I'm worked up. I have a guy saying I'm making posts from another world, and you guys are the ones passing off incorrect info as a fact. So let's take the assertion that it's because of 1:1. 6500rpm is going to hit 175mph. The redline is above that if I recall correct. Explain the extra 7mph above 168mph. I'll wait. If the car is accelerating at around .4g at 140mph, it will not drop to weed range by 168 causing it to be unable to rap out its 4th gear. This idea that the car reaches its top speed in a 1:1 is fine in a stock 150hp Corolla with no torque. Except if that isn't the case anymore. That car even reaches a higher speed in its overdrive gears. It would be much easier to compose a list of cars than reach a higher speed in their overdrive gears than it would be to compose one about cars that do not. Go drive a stock Subaru BRZ. 5th or 4th (manual/auto) are the 1:1 gears. Both reach ~127mph. The listed top speed for both cars is 137-147mph. Again, thatcar has a terrible powerband for acceleration. Very little torque. It reaches its top speed in overdrive. [/QUOTE]
