I was clocked at 135 mph doing a radar course for the new guys. I do still have a governor though.

i mean, i've wrapped my speedo but all that tells you is you're doing 140+ so i was trying to figure out what we got up to if you deleted your limiter

I'd say anywhere between 150-155 is a pretty good guess. I believe the 2v's topped out in the upper 140 range, so I figured the 3v's would push it alittle more.
