it is possible to beat the governer on these trucks without a mod, when you reach the speed limiter, just turn the key to the start position and voila, tons of power and these things move, cuts itself out at about 3600 rpm and then you have no power for a little bit but it always comes back

I've floored it to pass people in a 60mph zone and before I can get past 3 or 4 cars I'm usually at 95mph and still accelerating hard. The best part is when you got to pass and someone in a car thinks they are faster and whip out in front of you and they cant get out of your way. One of these days Im installing a frieght train horn and gonna blast them. Had a guy in a suped up crx come flying by me and didn't think much of it so I stroled up behind him at a light and he was reving his engine up so I told my buddy to hold on, the light was fixing to turn green and I started preloading my truck, light turned he took off, saw a smile on his face and then I launched the truck, broke traction and was black smoking up behind him fast, his face went from eat ***** grin to omfg I stayed bout 4 ft off his bumped while he shifted his little heart out in a crazed panic and I had to let of to keep from running him over. My buddy thought for sure I was gonna run him over and I was laughing the entire time, the look on that guys face, priceless!

It is my opinion and mine only, but if I was approaching 100 mph in a 7K # truck I would not want to be messing with a key and turning it just to see what the hell happens to maybe go over 100 mph!

cause you're well over 4,000 rpm.
Just keep in mind without the proper speed rating on your tire it's risky
but to me it's safer than going that fast in my old lx mustang cause you dont have to worry about front end lift ,the superduty just drives nice and stable
above 140 .

i just hold the key in the start position, with a standard if you don't have the clutch in the starter will not engage, automatic starter will not engage with the truck in gear so there is nothing to worry about unless something shorts, yes the speedo goes back to 0
