155m.p.h. Mcs???

Ok, random dream. But I had a dream that I modded my MCS and did some funky stuff with the gearing and it could go 155MPH

Of course it was a dream and I was woken up by "eeer eeer eeer eeer"

In all seriousness, is this possible? Could a MCS go 155? Stability, gearing??? I've had it up to 110, seemed fairly stable enough- tho I'm not sure I'd want to try 135...

Has it been done???

yes it can be done

I have video of my copper S from a dead stop to 5,500rpm in 6th gear. It was really stable, right up till the end when i had to take my foot off the gas and start slowing down. I was on a shut down air strip about 2 milesin total length, so it was legal and all. If i can get the vid off my camera onto the comp ill post it.

It will definately do 130+. This is not me, by the way!

As to not incriminate him, I'll let him identify himself, if he so chooses.
