OTOH, it will peg the speedo and hit the rev limiter at 6200 rpm, approx 120+mph.
IMHO, once at 50-60mph, the auto is king to 120. It doesn't have to downshift (although it might if you really hammer it) cuz it's already doing 3500 rpm!!
Sadly, it won't live long like this.....I try to change the atf every 30K using the new amsoil racing atf (close to Type F) which helps.
