I saw some speed / gear ratio calculators on previous posts ... I'm too lazy to do a search, but it's there for the finding.

by 6750 RPM you have already barried the needle so it is at least 165mph. I know this b/c I have done it before and the car was still pulling hard. Don't worry, i was not on the streets.

6750 in 6th would be 170.2 mph with stock tires. I've got a .xls or could make a pdf, but don't have hosting ability.
