I'm not a doubter. My Vinson auto hits 62mph (59 GPS reading) at about 5100 ft. elevation, 95 degree F weather, hardpack road. I thought it was pretty common knowledge (among Vinson owners anyway) that the Vinson will top 60 mph easy.

Thanks Mark. Was hoping to hear from a fellow Vinson owner. The Manuals are a few mph
faster than the autos. Bottom line is that I surprised myself and many others at the
track with my Vinson. I never expected it to run that well. And like i stated earlier, a modified
Banshee finally did me in. There is a limit though, ya know???

i put 7.5 pounds of pressure in my stock tires and hit 70 on a flat gravel road with gps. The speedometer dosent go past 62mph for some reason, but i can hit that all day long with about 5 pounds in the tires. If you dont believe in the vinson ride or race one ill be impressed for what they are(500cc, 600+#, 4x4).
