ive read a few threads on here saying people have gotten there 6's to around about 130mph to 140mph how long would the road need to be to reach these speeds? as mine wont go past 120mph, altho i have no private runway i would say the road i use is about 1 mile?! (stupid thread i know didnt rele know where to put it) :S Whistle

6800 rpm in Top on a 5 speed box, it didn't want to pull any further but it gets there fairly quick Ninja


7450 in 4th is circa 125 leptons...

At the Autobahn I push it in every gear to about 7000rpm, except 6th (which would result in about 150mph). Highest recorded speed is about 235 km/h = 146 mph (221 km/h on GPS), but I had to break and the road wasn't really straight.

Maxed mine on the autobahn. Clocks stopped at 140, rev counter carried on quite a bit further round, was on 50 profile tyres though and on flat-ish ground. Shell 102 octane Smile

Then got p*ssed all over at 140 by a Toureg V10 who pulled up alongside and booted it off into the distance LOL

Are they those tarmac strips criss-crossing the country, marked by signs bearing a capital 'M' and a number?
