3rd gear will go to at least 100 MPH. It turns 6k @ 100 MPH in 3rd gear.

maybe my Vibe is different but when I run at the track and reach third gear... I'm at red line by the time I cross the 1/4 line and I'm only going about 83MPH... of course I'm not bouncing off the rev limiter either but I'm at least 6000RPM.

Autos only have four.
