Talking I didnt expect this much power! :)

I was riding down a old country road coming home from work, its about a 7 miles straight down a newly paved road. No one in site except this van going 40 in a 60 mph road, so i rev up and pass him and i say screw it and keep going. all and all i let off at 130 at 8000 RPM in 4th, now that only leads me to think what i could achieve in 5th. its a 48mm weber , stock motor with 111,000 miles on it, rb headers and 3" straight pipe. i was super surprised the speed i did, i would of takin it faster if i wasnt riding on stock suspension. this old 12a just wont quit its a beast!
