How fast are stock 97 st's with 5 speeds, if you're a pretty good shifter. I've got 97 manual st all stock and I dont really know if I'd get my ass kicked by everybody in a race or not, I'm a pretty good shifter, but I'm not sure how it compares to other cars (what it could beat).

When I'm gunning it, wink.gif I shift high as well, around 5000/6000. biggrin.gif
This is in order to keep the revs up around 3500 rpm.
(Don't know about anyone else but I notice a slight powerband around 3500).
