I get a kick out of everyone here posting up answers, corrections, etc etc. I'll be on later to declare the winner. I don't know for sure the answer until I get home. If I were to guess myself I'd say (without a calculator on hand) somehwere around 2700.

Make sure not to actually EDIT your post or it won't count.

2730 RPMs

Whats the 5th gear ratio in the GT's transmissions? I went with the first thing I saw. 0.67.

Enjoy your $50 whoever wins.

I think it's 0.67 in the 3650. That's what I estimated.

I'm way late to this one, and I'm sure someone has guessed it. I'm going with 2720
