I did a thing!! It was meant to be, had to pick up some stuff for work, and one of the stops I happened to look at the odo as I got in the car (I had my oil temp on the display instead of odo, per usual). Was exactly at 17000! As I was leaving I got the pic!
I coulda put the clutch in and got to ~1700 RPM, but I think I did pretty good otherwise!
