Just wanted to throw this out -

3.73 rear end + A340e on stock height tires means you'll be spinning 7000+ rpm to get to your 200mph goal.

If you are really set on your 200mph goal, you might have to get creative with the ratios :)

Yes, the redline needs to be upped to about 7,600 rpm IIRC. I have been building everything accordingly (to the best of my abilities, anyway).

I don't care where you test it, but you damn well better take me for a ride in it :D

BTW, I assume you've worked out the little things like uh.. downforce? ;)

You are welcome to come along. Bring a couple of buddies. I can use plenty of downforce :naughty:
