Mine never came with one, they must have H rated tires on there from the factory now.

Its actually more for first timers because of the course you have to take, unless you have an approved reacing license.

And the point isn't to see how fast your car can go either.

And, no a 140 mph speeding ticke would be much more thatn $395, reckless driver, speeding, lawyer fees, upped insurance rates, etc etc.

There are flat out runs all over the country. There's even one here in the midwest... in Nebraska if I remember right. Takes a lot more than a high top speed to finish first in class, especially when you throw in a few 20-30 MPH hairpins and several 90* turns.

JVT, remember to add a few long right handers to that sustained RPM too! Though I guess you could just grab the E-brake and slide left around all of those...

okay so im confused. Are there turns? and they just calculate you average speed? Because if its just flat out why couldnt you just get a laptop obd scanner(for accuracy) and just set cruise control at 135mph.
