Are they limited to like 180km/h and gear ratio been changed hence now down to 152km/h?
That would be a big change though

Got a standard 6 cyl that'll do over 160......Not that I've found out the exact speed :)

And yet you are preaching about speeding to others........

What makes you think I am doing these insane speeds? Just to put you straight....Yes, I have a standard 6cyl that does 160+, and NO I didn't drive the car to reach that sort of speed. An ex-mate borrowed the car and just happened to let it slip he was doing 160 + between a couple of country towns. This is why he is an EX-MATE.

Firstly, driving my car like he stole it and secondly risking writing off my car especially when I'm familiar with the area he did it on. So instead of jumping to conclusions, get some facts FIRST

Then maybe you should clarify your statement instead of putting a smiley face emoji but yes I'm sure you must be a total angel....

I have had my car to 180kph+ and still pulling, but had to stand on the picks to make the corner.
This was between T11 & T12 at Bruce McLaren Motorsport park - So much legal fun :)

It would be interesting to know what it keeps pulling until.

Which is where such speeds should be attempted , as an now Ex police officer if I had a dollar for every high speed crash I attended , or done the late night house call to tell mum and dad that their child had been involved in a crash , well you know the rest .

I'm sure we have all done stupid **** when we were younger, I just find it hypocritical when people start pontificating.
