I thought I read in a car magazine the 2010 LS3 should do 150-155 mph on the top end. But then doesn't the ECM limit the top speed to around 140 mph? My gt500 mustang buddies are claiming 150 mph no sweat. I did 120 in the 1/4 mile yet kept my foot in it past the finish line. I know on the fwy 105 mph the tach is reading less than 3000 rpm in 6th gear. I'm not condoning breaking the law. Yet has anyone taken a stock LS3 on a road course? I know the 2010 Camaro needs better gearing out back for good 1/4 times.
