I think that when it comes to 6th gear in the S is still pulling high rev at cruising speed 80 at 3500rpm

Well, the speed limit isn't 80... ...I guess you end up paying for speeding even if you don't get a ticket...

Doesn't it seem like the speed limit is 80 on every road in an MCS?

I live by Cal Speedway. Got a chance to drive on the track, 110 in 5th pulling 4 grand.. The speed limit for the session I was running was 70MPH so the officials told me to shut it down! I don't understand why they didn't stop the shelby corba from doing 135-140 ahead of me. But I had 3 grand more and 6th gear to go!
