What is better for the Highway and for the track? 5 Speed or the 6 speed, what trans is overall better to have?

Just curious if there are any options for the 5-speed transmission that will make top speed somewhere near 130mph at 7500rpm? The ratios listed above show speeds way above that.

Thanks,

Dave
