For no particular reason
What speed is everyone doing down the straights and through the corners
Be honest now

My 300 rwhp car does 6000 rpm in 6th, about 190 kph.

172km/h highest as of late at the kink. The higher power/better drivers would see more.

What about other places

166 front straight.

Don't stress though you can actually do a slower lap with higher vmax as you can be forced to overflow after.

152 after kink, 90 mid turn 2 (100 by completion), 130.5 up hill straight, 119 turn 3, 95 turn 4, 100 top of hill, 88 turn 5, 115-130 through sweeper, 136 by fish hook, 71 through fish hook, 112 by turn 9 and continue to turn 10 at 138 down to 63 on turn 10, pit wall by about 105.
These speeds are off 10hz gps receiver through race chrono. Gauge in car reads a bit higher.

This is for a 1:12.7 lap which can be seen on my build thread.

I had higher speeds in the morning when it as a little colder and without the mis-shift entry to the straight, this was just after midday so I was only hitting 183kph. On Low boost to boot. N/A I used to hit about 162kph on a good day.
