- Way to go Mayf! The most obvious reason why you can't exceed 5200 rpm is you need more horsepower to go faster. I assume you get more horsepower at higher rpms, so the obvious solution is lower gears

- Mayf, it's good to hear you came through without any major problems. I followed the posted results and was pretty dismayed when the result for Wednesday included "spin" in the comments behind your ru

- Lack of horsepower is the only reason I can think of for not going faster. Theo, If Mayf knows the engine should be putting out enough HP @ 5200 rpm to go faster than 180, then he needs to fix what'

- Don't forget what Carroll Shelby said about the Cobra "When we got to 150 MPH it was like hitting a brick wall." He cured the problem with aerodynamics, the Daytona. I would think a faring around the
