Re: [DML] Top Speed

[Christopher Mack <christopher_mack@xxxxxxxxx>]

Nathan,

Several month back I got my car up to 120 trying to catch up to another DeLorean that passed me.  I had to use the tachometer conversion table, being that the speedo on my DeLorean only goes to 85.   I was doing 4500 rpm in 5th.  I feel my car could have gone faster, but I slowed down because it was a saturday night and I didn't want to risk getting a ticket.  Whne your were driving were you going against the wind or with it?  That could ba a factor as to why you only got to 105.

Today I was able to see what she is capable of. I floored it and got 
the car to accelerate to 105mph. However it would not go any faster, 
at least it seemed to top out around there on my GPS. 

Is this a similar top speed to other Deloreans? Is there something 
that would prevent me from going faster that I should look into? (as 
if I need to go faster..)
