yeah I was grabbing the camera to swivel it around and shifted pretty slow to 5th and lost tons of momentum....that landed me a ~ 5500rpm, the car makes it's peak power at 8000 where I shift. So you'll notice in 3rd and 4th as I get towards the top of the gear I stop pulls and start walking.
I have a feeling it takes more horsepower for an evo to do 165+ than the slippery shape of the Viper...my car is shaped like a shoe box
