I could have sworn I saw the speedometer hit 130...

governor is by determined by the states.
And its generally 125-127.
Try to go 182.
Now thats fast.
I wouldn't recommend you really trying out your car unless you goto a track. If you live on the coast around D.C. I recommend MIR (Maryland International Raceway). They also have a Nos refill tank.

Speedo Error
remember, the speedometer is not absolute... error increases with speed.
...it might read 130 gage, but you'll actually be doing a few MPH less.
you need to find a cop who's cool & will clock you for fun. i live in south louisiana so it's not a problem... this might be more difficult in other areas!
"Louisiana- 49th is everything except reckless fun!"

tC = limited at 127. The whole excited driving really fast the first time and not really staring at the speedo will make ya think it's higher...the first time I did it I coulda sworn I hit 135. I've done it a few times and can verify that the engine stops going the faster at 127

it's a fun bouncing effect at 127, I would agree that it looks close to 130, but since death and I are really good friends I was able to look close . sadly didn't hit it. but you can take out the limiter if you know enough. so I need to find someone who can take it out, I want to red line in 5th just before I burst into flames and destroy a small part of the countryside.
