Super old post but I figured I’d post this for posterity…. We did the math in another thread a few years back. Using stock tire size and gearing of the 350 and 350R, we arrive at:

For the GT350:
1'st gear = 55mph
2'nd gear = 80mph
3'rd gear = 111mph
4'th gear = 144mph
5'th gear = 178mph
6'th gear = 283mph (theoretically)
reverse = 60mph

For my GT350R brethren:
1'st gear = 54mph
2'nd gear = 78mph
3'rd gear = 108mph
4'th gear = 141mph
5'th gear = 174mph
6'th gear = 277mph (theoretically)
reverse = 59mph

I hope that reverse is theoretically as well!

Not theoretical at all…. Apparently you’ve never left the house, gotten 4 houses down then the wife calls to tell you she’d like to see you in the bedroom ASAP! In moments like that, speed matters!!

Hahaha, yeah that was another chapter in my life. I’d still head back home to put out that fire, but I think that train done left the station for my beautiful bride…:wink:
