Its AMAZING how something as simple as a switch and a wire can bring so much joy!!!!!

Cause becuase of it,and a simple wire splice, I just hit 135mph today, and could have kept going if it werent for the fact I ran out of road.

I am really suprised how effortlessly it got to that speed, with no straining, and no pushing, Just give it gas and it goes.....

135, you are crazy

cmon, now, when and why do you need to go that fast. I dont want to sound like a daddy, but good god 135?? i hit 126 and that was scary as hell and i dont really pplan on trying to beat that. Your tires are only rated at 130 if you are on stock tires, or H series. good god, where did you go that fast, i am scared.

Yes you did. I love you man. As far as driving that fast, I have never driven that fast before, and normally I would never drive that fast. I was bored and a little down about some stuff, and desided to tinker with the car. Once done, I desided to test it out. Again, normally I would NEVER drive that fast. But its amazing that a 15 to 20 min snip and splice job, that it could be such a big , free mod.

yeah

i've gone about 135 in my max and it felt safe. I went 145 in my acura legend and it felt better though. but, the max is a good car and feels safe at 135, however it is not meant for speeds above that. the aerodynamics of the car limit the ability for it to be stable above that. the fastst i've driven a car is about 175 (dodge viper) and it felt a helluva lot faster that 135. that is scary on certain roads. if you plan on going fast, make sure u have a lot of straight, flat, flat, flat road.

Hmmm i wouldnt trust my '95 max after 115, it gets too light and the steering wheel is too loose, iam affraid that a lil bigger bump will make the steering wheel turn a bit more then its suppose to and make me go out of control...I only like to do over 115 in my m3..
