How Fast Have You Been ?
Hey all just a bit bored and just wondering how fast you have been in your car or your m8s car.
The fastest I’ve been in my EB is about 188 clicks and in my m8s xr8 Ute was about 200 but I don’t think he had his foot down lol

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.

70k on a 12speed racer cumn down hallam rd (clockd by the cops in a 60zone)
an me and a mate had a 260kmh dash clockd in a HSV enhanced VN Clubsport (im not guna go into this story as i feel it will jus be throwin fuel on my alredy brightly burning fire)

When my ED got to 180'ks it cut off, I shat myself thinking what have I done to my car? It was'nt till later I was told it does that in the auto's! (phew)
I'm guessing they are called limiter's? If so are they in the engine or computer?
Are they in all e-series autos or manuals too?
(should be in NOOB but since we are on the topic)
