Any top speed thrill seekers here?

It's hard to get the speed here at altitude.
My 02 we did a couple runs on a deserted road near Four Corners and got 176.4 gps on the limiter. Still close to 5000 ft altitude there.

For reference, mine has 30K miles, Hindle exhaust (not the step tube), BMC filters, PCIIIUSB, -1/+1 on a 190/50 tire.
I've seen 181 with the same gearing and a 190/55 tire.

One day I plan to set up my 2000 model for top end... just too many other projects right now.

Well Lurch you were right on.... She hit 184mph on the limiter in 5th, shift to 6th and it just sits there at 11k and won't pull any harder. I managed 185mph in 6th and that's it. Stock gearing. I need to get my sea level HP back (i.e. add nitrous), or maybe go +1 in the rear. 5800ft elevation at the spot I tested at.
