[T3] Max rpm

[Dave Hall]

The nightmares have stopped now, but I still remember the high-speed slalom
through road construction barrels in the dark trying to keep up with John,
and outrun the storm, coming back from the first invasion in Idaho.  In the
UK we use plastic cones and put barriers on the edges of cliff roads -
that's not macho enough for you guys in the USA.  ;-)

"the red line for a stock (1600 FI) engine is about 4500  rpm"
AND knowing the gear ratio of 4th gear, can compute ~MPH speed  ...
on flat, level road, no wind, well-tuned engine, etc.?,

With  Jim's caution ... I may not ever do that.
But the temptation is always  there.
 
 
You mean like trying to keep up with Jim, when he's got his foot in it.
