How fast do you go in 2nd gear?

**Mad$ella** · 01-25-2005, 05:57 PM

When you are racing at what speed and RPM do you shift out of 2nd gear at???

Me: ~120km/h @ 5200 RPM

**marq-jt** · 01-25-2005, 05:59 PM

60km/p @ 7600 rpm .... LOL

What does your car run the 1/4 in?

**Lo)2enz0** · 01-25-2005, 06:25 PM

i wouldn't know the speed i need a new gauge cluster

but i would guess about 75km/h at 7500rpm

**knees scrapin'** · 01-25-2005, 06:39 PM

Over 200 kmh if I bring it to the limiter

i usually hit 30km/h in 2nd when im cruising thru the school zones

**boy1_** · 01-25-2005, 07:16 PM

the volvo'll hit ~110-120km/h in second at 6500rpm, only done it once though.

I'd say that you are the dumb one buying an automatic.

i didnt think they would be that torquey, and it must redline pretty low

**iceburns288** · 01-25-2005, 08:20 PM

The redline on the RAM Cummins is 3200 I think.

Truck might hit 100kmh, my dad's car can go ~200. The Porsche might go ~150 (I dunno, ask 962 kid).
