WTF!? when my car was completely standard I ran at Bedford autodrome runway (or did I?) and got to an indicated 130 in 6th but felt like it didn't have the boost to push on so I ducked out. Front end got a bit light too i felt but was on stock suspension also.

I had indicated 130 on the straight, had to back off due to corner, but given a track with a longer straight or a trip to the autobahn i would be interested to see where the aerodynamics would get the better of the power.

Does anyone know what it is geared to, with stock box and diff, forgetting power and aerodynamics.
