If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour... you're gonna see some serious ****.

My guess would be around 160 or so. Odomoter stops at 150 -.- I didn't know I was running that fast, I was running vs a terminator and we were side by side when I decided to look at the speedometer because I remembered that 4th was up to 140 that is when I was on stock gears.

I've gotten it to about 120 but that's cause the only place I know without a speed trap is only about 1 mile long!
Maybe I'll take the GT to Vegas and see if I can find a deserted stretch of highway like the old days. Just get concerned when the hood starts to swell at about 100.

130 mph with my Dad in the passenger seat. It was shortly before he passed away from cancer. Years before, I was doing 165 mph on a motorcycle racing next to him.

I miss him so much!

Im pretty sure GT's in general come with limiters. Look at any specs it says top out at 143mph. Plus it would be unsafe for ford to not put a speed limiter on it especially since they put it on the v6 coupes and verts.
