I believe a G-62 with a T-6 prop and no muffler was in the high 7's. Good luck. Should be pretty fast. Due to the high pitch on the prop the trick is to get it slowed down for landing, we make our landings dead stick if you have flaps you might be able to do it with the engine at idle but we normaly are power off for landing.

RPM in the air should be 9200-9600....It won't do it with a muffler, especialy the stock one...USRA racers use a 8 inch long straight pipe from Mac's Products.....
