I agree with Rob. I hit 160 in 4th gear with only approx. 4800rpm's. It was still climbing, I just slowed down, because got a little scared.

The car wont shift into 4th (od) if your on just the regular drive So if you launch in D, once you get "up there" you gotta shift her into OD to get into 4th.. damn you guys are nuts.... 130+ scares the **** outta me...

Talking

I figured it out! The reason it sucks around ~80 mph is because it won't kick down into 3rd, but I pulled the shifter down into 3rd, and then it pulled like a scared cat up to ~110-115 . I think I probably should have got a 6-speed. I like shifting.
