My gearing has to allow incredible accleration to 200+ to actually get up to those speeds. Given a 3 mile straight, gearing would be vastly different.
Mine is a compromise I have to pull 1000rpm over peak Power to have the
accleration to reach record speeds if i could have 1000rpm more on the gearing i would be hitting 236mph + at peak power . Doubt Mark would want another 40secs at wot so its purely accademic.
I assume you missed this bit in your eagerness to tell us all how your car is the best

What I said was 100% correct, your car is not designed to cope with the heat of a WOT topspeed run over multiples of miles
