That's still unknown. I picked those numbers as a middle ground between Insideline's report that the rev limiter in 2nd kicks in at 59.2, and serialk11r's comment that 5th maxes out at ~131.

In retrospect, serialk11r probably based 5th maxing out at 131 on my comment earlier in the thread (note in that in that same comment, I had written that it hits 60 MPH in 2nd). Tire deformation is such that it'll have a higher rolling radius at 131 MPH than at 59.2 MPH, but I don't know the formula.

Maybe 2nd does top out at 59.2 MPH, or maybe Insideline's tires were slightly deflated, or maybe Insideline's results were slightly off due to a mishap with their testing equipment. Who knows? I started this thread because I was curious about gear ratios in general, but I don't care if 2nd tops out at 59.2 or 60.8 MPH. But FWIW, GT5 lets me get to 60 in 2nd gear

Since we don't know the story regarding rolling radius, here are the two extremes for all three transmissions (again how tire deformation varies with speed is not accounted for):
