LOL, you got that right Plumbob, we are always rolling hard out west here...


I had mine up at 146 this past summer, still had room to go, were thinking 165mph for this build. Yes I have the Z rated tires and no I was not wearing a seat belt either...

Did 115 this weekend on I-81 in Central PA (Flattest road around). I think I could have gone faster but I was running out of road (traffic ahead). Did 110 down 83 last night coming home from Susky (Susquehanna Speedway Park [SSP]).

They didn't raise it unless it was a supercharged model, which I think was raised by like 5 mph or something.

With the 06/07 SS's they did raise it to something like 155 or 165. I know my WS6 is governed at 155.
