I do want to get some sort of gps track data thing to show me, just haven't looked into it much. Something that will work with a gopro and not cost to much. Any advice?

I am considering the same thing. I have looked at the AIM Solo, Traqmate as well as Harry's lap timer for the iphone. Harrsy's appears to be the most economical.

Any thoughts??

Put me in the slow column...I have only had mine up to 75 mph, oh course it has never been on the track either

You need to get signed up for Track Attack ASAP. There's a thread on here with contact info. It ends this year and if you go you'll never regret it ! I believe you said you are the first owner of your Boss.

Yeah I received the info on the Boss Track Attack and I signed up to go this year. I think it will be a good time, then I can take myself out of the slow column

Are these speeds in 5th or 6th gear

The Boss hits the 155 limiter right at the redline in 5th. My data showed 156.8 mph @ 7493 rpm when I hit the speed limiter. So anything substantially over that happens in 6th or there have been gearing changes.

Not with 3.55 gears ;D I was hoping to improve on the 152 I did at Pocono this spring at Charlotte during the 50th birthday celebration but there seems to be a 135 mph speed limit for even the advanced group during the event. I guess I'll do a couple mock qualifying laps the last session on Saturday then get black flagged.

Black flagged for speed...no. It's a black flag for being too awesome!
 
I have not bought my Boss yet 9will do so this year) but even my wife was doing 100 mph on the way home one day..in our Honda Pilot! So methinks her and I will put a few high speed runs on my blue baby when I get her.
