Default Re: Top Speed?

Sadly, I cannot tell you how many times I have hit the limiter. It sort of is freaky when it kicks in though. It is like you totally lose power until it reaches the lower speed.

We have a lot of two lane stretches where one lane is filled with big trucks and the other lane is littered with the performance cars. It can be a pain pulling out into the fast lane to pass a truck and in seconds there is a Porsche on your butt.

Before I bought the H3, I was trying to decide on the H3 or go crazy and get a 6.1L Dodge Charger. I went with the H3 because I liked it better, and I thought slower would be better too (you do crazy things at those speeds).

For those passing times, I would like the extra power. However, normally I run it in the 70-90 mph range (the norm for autobahn traffic around here).
