so a few days ago I was mobbing around with deorge (and his zx2) we got on the freeway (405) in snohomish, and ended up going a little over the speed limit. anyway the freewas was basicly vacant, and we ended up side by side, and neither one of up let up on the gas (not racing just messing around) but eventualy we hit 110 and i started losing him, so i figured that i would just se how fast i could get to. ended up at 120+ and had to slow for a bend in the road, but still 120!!!! fastest I have ever been in a car. GOOD TIMES
![]() Is there a govoner in our cars (govoner limits the speed the car can get up to) I know there was one in my civic (it was like 105) but i never felt it limit in the celica, it seemed as though I could just keep speeding up, until it red lines. anyone been any faster in a 6gc, if so: how fast? gat a cool story about mobbing around mobbing: driving fast and with out consern for the speedlimit, usualy in a group. and also includes swerving though traffic. <really stupid> -------------------- ![]() |

If you search, you'll find old posts about this. Automatics do not have a speed limiter, but many manuals do. In my automatic, I hit 127 before I could go no further. Not a limiter.. just aerodynamics, hp of the engine in highest gear, tire size, etc etc etc etc.
Warning tho, anything over 105 mph I believe shows up on airplane radars. So, if you drive past an airport while a plane is taking off, you suddenly show up on their radar. Police helicopters etc have it down at about 90 I believe, so they can easily call in speeders. Basically, you're one bright target at high speeds; and over 100 is a night in jail and car impounded. |
