Definately get over 70 mph in 2nd according to the dig. read on the speedo. I cannot vouch for the actual speed as I havent ever checked the calibration of the speedo. I think it is probably about + 3 to 5 mph. My prior M Roadster burried in the rpms would get about 63 to 64 mph.. 2nd in the Box seems a little bit taller.
Anyway, I dont recommend redlining second all day, but it does have a certain fun factor!
