Speedos a bit off that high up. I believe the actual cut off is 112 or 113...

I have never tried to see how fast my Zetec goes. The fastest i have driven it is like 85 to 90 MPH.

Took a while, but I got it up to a little over 100 the other day... then I went around a curve on the highway and right into a speed trap. Fortunately, all their officers were outside of their cars, chatting, rather than clocking me. I'm sure they left their radar on though, so my V1 would have avoided that scare all-together, if I hadn't left it at home.

Mine limits at 110 and comes back at 105. Is it true about the whole double tapping to override the limiter?

Why has nothing to do with top speed.
