F355 - Top Speed in 5th (in 6spd manual)?
Hi all
I happen to have been driving a rather nice Ferrari 355 today, but its speedo was disconnected. A bit childish I know but I'd like to know how fast I got up to as it's safe to say it's more than I've ever managed in my GL!
At my top speed I'd been into 6th gear (manual box) for just a few seconds - so top speed in 5th is probably a reasonable estimate of how fast I was going (as I can't remember how many rpm in 6th sorry
). Anyone know? A genuine private road btw! Elvington trackday for my 21st.
Same question for a 348 (5spd manual) almost to the redline in 4th if anyone happens to know that too.
Dax Rush was still the most fun
Cheers,
Ben
