Why wouldn't you convert that number into MPH when he asked what RPM x MPH not KMH.

its normal....the r/t's rev higher in all gears, but since you spend more time in 5th, you just notice it more

Ohio touches Canadian waters so no suprise you know that Eh?

If I remember correctly a KM is like 3/4s of a mile, but even if it is I hate thinking more thanI have to.
