Speedometers

By any chance, would any one have a picture of the fastest they've done?

I posted a thread not long ago on how Tl-p (atleast '99s) dont have a rev limiter governor because i reached 153mph (stopped 'cause my tires are v-rated~147mph) but the way my car speed was accelling at that speed i can vouch that it'll do 160 in another 1/2 miles (took~2.5mi). Hit 150 @ 5000rpm, still had the strongest 1200rpms to rev!

TL-S cant reach over 147, that was proved on my thread also...Only person to beat me is some guy in a 01 tl-p who did 155 i think.

no pics...hell, if something was to go wrong, i'd rather crash and die by myself than with the filming crew.

I hope your seatbelt light is stuck on, otherwise you got issues going those speeds with no belt on.

O YEAH!!! haha...it really doesnt matter, you crash you die. Actually a human being crashing at those speeds will literally turn into V8 juice...restraint or no restraint.
