For the g force acceleration g= G m / r2 where r and m are the mass and radius of the earth. g has the value of 9.78039 x 10-1 m.s-2 at the equator and 9.83217 x 10-1 m.s-2 at the poles (since the earth is somewhat flattened at the poles). Diff would be bigger on everst

our top speeds are limited by drag and the final drive. . .i'm assuming Keyser has the 3.84, so he should be able to pull 160mph ok. . .who knows, maybe more? Maybe he should enter it in the American Le Mans series under GTS?

so with a 3.84 FD gear, potentially seeing 180 is possible?

Well, my ATX will theoretically do 178 at redline. Since I have a Superchip, my redline is raised so I could break 180 pretty easy...
