I've done 125 but that was cutting it very close with traffic, probably won't do it again, lol.

Chris do you remove the limiter on your flashes? ( Is "flash" the right word here??)

dont try pushing the car to its max until you have better tires... unless you want to kill yourself then by all means try hitting 130+
