You were 7500rpm in 6th gear going 176mph?

Choose one:
[ ] Clutch was slipping the entire time
[ ] You installed 23" diameter rear tires (3.5" shorter than stock)
[ ] You installed ~4.25 final drive gear
[ ] Tires were spinning the entire time
[ ] Inaccurate Story

7500rpm in 6th gear with either 6MT or 7AT would be over 200mph with stock gearing and tire diameters if you had the power to reach it. Aside from the basic math not agreeing with you... I have gone faster than 176mph in car the and it did not require 7500rpm to do this.
