Obviously, it won't be 1/2 way in the middle of those numbers... but 140 would be a nice guess... 145 tops maybe?!?
Les did 139 with a STRONG headwind, but he also has some healthy mods, light wheels, and lowered suspension.

So, anywhere between 132-136 for most of us on calm conditions would be a good estimate. If you're heavily modded and the wind is favorable, low 140's. Which is smoking.
