62700. But still way over what it was rated for. The only reason I pushed it that hard was because I had the upgraded 928 ceramic bearings and I thought the bearings were what failed at high rpm. If I had known that it was the oil slinger that's prone to failure at high rpm, I wouldn't have spun it so fast (well, I might have anyway)

Hotrodz, Optimiser and "Z"en like this.
