yeah, is there any way to disable the speed limiter? i was running with a suburban an the pa turnpike last week and i pulled hard on him from 65 mph. he could not keep up with the acceleration. but when i got to 97 mph, it just fell on its face. the suburban finally caught up, then passed. he knew i would take him by the way i took off, but he did have the top speed on me.
