Default Top End :D

You guys are going to think I am full of it, but I found my top end on my 00 EXVL. U.S. Spec V6 with only a cheap cold air intake. Planning on doing many more mods but I got a $6,100 bill at the college right now...ugh. Higher education sucks . Was about 35 degrees out on a long flat road. Running 92 octane. Had about a 100 lbs in the trunk and a friend of mine who goes about 275 lbs riding shotgun. Took a few miles but I made it up to 145 mph at somewhere around 5,000 rpm (I wasnt lookin that close, to busy looking at the road and checking the speedo...lol). I had it up to 140 several times just gooffing off. But this was the first time I made it up there. Going to have to get a front spoiler because it starts floating after about 125. I just thought this was funny since that is faster than the top end on the C4 Corvette I had.

It floats at 125 and this idiot goes 145. I give this moron 2 weeks to kill himself or a van full of kids.
