I'm running a top speed gearing of 300 kph... seems to just about top out before T1.

Taller gearing doesn't really seem to help, because even if you get an exceptional run off the hairpin, the car is nearly to terminal velocity at 300 kph so you can't really run out of gear.

What kinda sucks is that with a few minor suspension tweaks to loosen the car up, I can run sub 1'00 laps all day in GT mode... the arcade car is really pushy in that 3rd/4th gear left hander after the 1st tunnel.
