Then the right needle stopped moving & a truck was getting closer quite quickly like as if he was reversing towards us. So I moved my foot to the wide pedal & it felt quite unhappy about things.Frig I love going quick & frig my discs need to hit the Rubbish bin.Scottyp.s. www.fordxr6turbo doesn't condone................................

sixfan Flaccid Member Donating Members 2,503 Member For: 21y 9m 1d Gender: Male Location: NOONAMAH, go figure..... Posted 27/08/03 10:34 PM Share Posted 27/08/03 10:34 PM I've run mine up to 230 a few times, I checked the speed limiter with a GPS. It's at 230 on the dot (and my speedo was pretty much spot on at this speed also.) Only time I really wished the speed limiter wasn't there was when I was driving with a CBR 1000 motorbike......230 is pretty fast, I like to sit on 180, the car feels so much nicer at that speed. Oh yeah, NT TURBO, if anyone could wring an extra 10 Kph past the limiter, it I'd be you.(great driving with you!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disgruntled Goat Member 98 Member For: 21y 9m 21d Posted 28/08/03 07:07 AM Share Posted 28/08/03 07:07 AM have reached 233 with no sign of the limiter. takes forever to get from about 190 - 230 and the stopping "power" is disturbingly lacking.
