indeed it was, that's what happens when you run it for weeks with no water because all the water you put in just comes straight out again.
also, if you look, the dials say it's not moving, when I was actually doing 4200rpm in 5th

4200rpm in 5th, that's about, 80-85mph, maybe even 90?
I keep mine at a steady 60mph, does me just fine.
