Default Top speeds on different tracks?

Did a search for speed and speeds and only came up with Willow Springs.

What are your top speeds out on the following tracks? Please include tire size, rev limit, engine, and transmission.

Mid America Motorplex
Summit Point - main
CMP
BeaveRun
Gingerman
Road Atlanta

Thanks.

I think if you hope to get any answers you should probally ask more along the lines of speeds reached in H1 and H4 on these tracks and which configuration they are running

The car is an 01 Prelude
JRSC H22 on 9 lbs. hondata tuned

stock 7400RPM redline, 8k rev limit (shift at 7400)
Tires - Falken RT 615 215/40/17
Stock Trans


Gingerman - 100mph
Grattan - 115mph (in the rain)
I'll let you know on July 28th what I hit if it dosn't rain. I'm guessing 122, 123...


You should add Grattan to your list of tracks as it's only an hour from Gingerman.

H2 ITR- 225 50/15 - B18C5 - 4.9 FD

(indicated speedometer numbers are probably reading a little lower than actual)

CMP = 122
Road Atlanta = 135
VIR full = 140

Hope it doesn't need to be a Honda:

Mid America Motorplex:
Lancer Evo VIII: 295/35/18; 2.3 4G63 w/gt35r; 7800rpm limit, OEM tranny: 143mph

Summit Point - main (haven't been)

CMP
SCCA Formula Continental: 123mph
Stock Lancer Evo: 117mph
Evo above: (I will tell you in three weeks)

BeaveRun
Evo listed above: 136mph, but had fouled plugs.

Gingerman: (haven't been)

Road Atlanta:
Formula Continental: something between 130 and 135, haven't seen the data trace though guessing based on gearing.
Showroom Stock C Neon ACR: 114
Porsche Club I-class 944: 116

Roebling:
Formula Continental: 133
SSC Neon: 111
Stock Lancer Evo: 136 (indicated, probably 132 actual)
Evo Above: 156 (with handling issues in high-speed corners, with work, I am expecting 165 or so)

Bone stock '00 ITR 195/55/15 OEMs 110-115mph (decent brake pads)
Bone stock '03 WRX 205/55/16 OEMs 105-110mph (stock brakes suck)
Basic mods '05 STi 225/45/17 OEMs 120-125mph (stock brakes)

I was really impressed with the STi on the track. The thing just flies for a bigger car. It pulls out of corners hard. If I had better brake pads I could've probably hit 130-135mph. However, I did have fuel starvation issues with less than a 1/4 tank of gas.

Hopefully I'll be able to get my '93 SE-R out to MAM sometime soon before the end of this summer. I'm guessing I can hit around 110mph on the front straight.

Are you sure this isn't speedo error? That sounds awfully high for an H4 car...

A wise man once said. If you can look at your speedo, you're not going fast enough.

Or you're driving a H4 car

I could read a book down VIR's back straight.
