I wonder if you aren't aware of your personal limits or don't acknowledge and enforce then. I have the same issue. I wrote them dowm this morning. That was my first step.

You are alright, sewerrats, alright
![]() The highest I've taken an vehicle, was 105/110mph, I didn't like what the car was feeling like(like it, was having an anxiety attack), at that, but then again, it was no diesel engine! (I knew that stretch of hwy, fyi)... |

Took my WS-6 up to 120 mph and shifted into 5th. Being a 6-speed I had 2 more gears to go. The speed governor would stop the car from going faster than 163 mph though. |

AMERICAN MUSCLE CARS ,are not the point of this experiment they would not have :gone round those bends at 90-100mph you would end up in the field with rear wheel drive, there good at straight line and burning fuel . This is a baby Nissan micra HAMMERING bends not straight line at near 100 mph and returning 70mpg , in England we have great twisting road great for showing car skills, not mile and miles of straight roads ,we call them motorways for cars to travel in convoy from one end of the country to the other. Hot hatch cars are favoured for our b roads like fiat 5oo abarth, mini cooper S , ECT ECT fun cars not Smokey and the Bandit TRANS AM ,my son drives a GOLF VR6 and can go no faster round bends that my micra , that is what the experiment was for , mod a **** car into a good car.
