I'm going to try to find a place somewhere close to me this summer that I can legally open it up just to see if it will hit the 200 MPH mark, the 1" taller tire's may help to get me there. I know it's been said that the SRT6 would redline before it reached 200 MPH, but at 186 my tach was hitting 5,600 to 5,700 RPM if I remember correctly (at that speed I was just giving it quick glances), I've only got 14 more MPH to get there.
steve- thats pretty amazing work you are doing up there...
if you hit 200, I''ll send you a drink coupon at red lobster or whatever the hell restaurant is open in the polar boonies you live in!
