I had 110 from 1.2 with a cable drive.

I would take the shown with a pinch of salt, GPS for the actual speed.

Due to the gearing 7000 limit is max 140, but at 7000 you are not at full power more like 6500 so 130 tops.

I was tanking along a westbound A road at 140mph on friday night, with more to go if i had a little longer stretch of road. I've got a pic from the phone i wa salso playing with at the time but don't really want to post it on a forum.


My e-penis is now a smidge bigger after posting that BTW.

If you were in a bad mood so you went out an did a top speed run, you'll be in a worse mood if you get done for it.

I've had 110mph out of my Puma

pussy.

had 125 on the speedo a while back, thought i was going to die

although it was more satisfying then having 160 on the speedo in the focus, that was quite boring tbh.

e-penis is huge.

Your e-penis is bigger than mine,i seen 120 on the speedo last night on the way for a KFC.Quite confident it would have easily done more but as you know its quite scary and pretty wallowy up that end in a Puma.Was actually quite surprised how quick it got there mind you.
