Hi,
I can't use the chart as i don't have the right program on my computer.
Can someone work it out for me.
I've gat a 98 blade engine,3.54 diff and 205 60 13 tyres.

my old blade car with a 3.62 diff and 195/50/15 indicated 125mph, would imagine you will be somewhere close to that.

At the rev limiter ~125, the last 5mph make you grit your teeth to get there.
Perfect ratio for a blade engine as max RPM is max speed, a lower diff and I doubt you will go any faster

pretty much all struggle beyond the 125 mark car engines included its something to do with the brick shape
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Stick a big 6 in it mate it just powers through the 125 barrier,  Cheers Ray
To make a car go faster, just add lightness. Colin Chapman - OR - fit a bigger engine. Chippy
