Also not sayin the calculator was or wasnt correct but until i find any other proof i will use it.
What calculator did you use, and what did you input to get this speed calculation? Reason i ask is you did not mention tire size, which also is a huge factor in determining top speed, RPM, trans Gear, Rear gear all determine how fast your axles are turning, how far you travel per each rotation of the axle is (IE Speed) then determined by tire height.
