thanks, yeah its limited at 155, i was surprised how strong the pull was at that speed, I honestly feel this car could hit 170ish with enough road.

yes, it was in the united states of mexico

Highest I went was 110 mph. and that sh%t was pretty scary. We don't have real highways or clear straight aways here in Guam.

How was the weather in Mexico?

Nice vid!

I started to feel a little loose in the rear with my new tires (Yoko S. Drives 285R) @ 140. I think I need to get something stickier next time around. Could have been the lack of downforce on a windy day as well.
