I'd like to see what she can do but I don't know where to try it in central Jersey. I thought overdrive would bog it down like 6th gear does to manuals. Save The Wave: Isn't the rev-limiter on L98's around 5200. Your pushing those revs at 121 in drive?
65Z01: 185 has got to be a RUSH. I take it that GS is not stock. Or is it an LT4?

The L98 does not have a factory rev limiter. There is a spot in the chip for it, but it's disabled by setting it at 9000rpm or something ridiculous like that.

Marcho: Is that just the auto L98's?
Looking at Ray8's pic, he's doing 173 and his tack is at 4000 rpm. Still in the torque band and far from red line!
I wonder if he still had anything left?

I do all my own work, why not take my own pictures? You only live once you know!
CJ: Are you taking those pictures yourself? Crazy dude!
