Is there any easy way?  No, aside from tire changes.  However, if you pull 
the tranny apart it's relatively easy to change the gear ratios.  I think 
that I'll end up doing that in my GT, although I'll only change  5th, I think 
- since I'm pretty sure I'll be maxing it out well before the end of most 
straights...Has anyone figured out the maxium speed permissable by the engine 
rather than aerodynamics?  I figured it was around 130.

Later!
