that's why i wouldn't run my car unless there was no one else out on the road.
That statement right there speaks volumes...
I am not trying to bust on you, really...but there are many old timers here that know what they are talking about.
Doing 130 on a track is dangerous, but one has dramatically better control over the environment and you mitigate a majority of the risks involved in high speed travel. No wildlife, no trash, propper road surface, no obstacles...etc. Those variables are what will put you in your grave on the street.

Your tune, whether SCT or Diablo, must be setup to remove or change the top-speed limiter.
Taking out 2 cylinders wont help
Yep, I don't have custom tunes, and under modifying/creating tunes taking it off is one of my options. I don't go over 75mph on highways anyway for safety reasons and losing my car/ticket reasons.
the gauge hit 120 before it went down. i mean, the gauge might have been incorrect, but it literally hit the other side before i felt the pedal give way and the car slow down.
It could happen going downhill with a tailwind.
