So here is what I know from driving mine....
3rd gear, 4200 rpm, 60 mph
4th gear, 3000 rpm, 60 mph
redline 7000
not even gotten it into 5th gear yet
I was figuring this out at 60 mph when I noticed that a state patrol was on the overpass tagging me. Under the overpass I went, looked back that he was gone. Oh come on! 60 is not 65 or 75. I went into the right lane and slowed to 58 with the other traffic and, sure enough, out popped the State Patrol into the fast lane heading up to me. I could not believe it! So up he come, he comes along side, slows down for a few seconds, and then putters off ahead of us all. Just cam by for looks, I guess.
Taught me that a siver arrow catches attention especially when Oregon has not seen one on the road (except mine). I will leaver 5th gear for our trip to Las Vegas or Monterey... or maybe just hit Montana to go fast.
... I be smilin'
