Whats your rpm at 70mph?

My old MK1 MR2 was close to 4k at 70.

My current MR2 GT-S is around 3k. Will know for sure at 7:30 when I go out. ;)

Are we doing indicated 70 or GPS 70?
 
Don't forget that people are telling you the revs at an indicated 70 which won't be the same as true 70. Although I don't know if it makes any difference to your project.

3,900rpm at 70mph in 6th gear. Honda S2000 (18mph/1000rpm in 6th)

Hi m8

You might also want to mention that your car has a 9000rpm limit, wheras certainly all the other cars here do not. :)

Yeah. I will just assume that people are giving me their revs at an indicated speed on the speedo. Also by the looks of things, diesels tend to rev a lot lower than petrol cars :)

Thought I would save that for later, its 9,200rpm ;)
Real speed too, mind you speedo is about 1mph out according to GPS at 80. So pretty accurate
 
Just above 4000rpm in the Anglia as it only has 4 gears. She screams on the motorway. That's a 1700cc.

My mate's '84 Z27 Camaro sits between 1500 and 1700rpm, the torque converter isn't locked at that speed. 5.7l V8
 
Dunno about highest gear but in 3rd just under 8,000 RPM

K20A :D

Edit: In 6th just under 3,400 RPM
