From: I can drive my F-body in Winter!
can you put it on the web, with you in it, and the state, so I can inform the local constabulary 
damn
I always thought they had speed governors... did you disable it?

I rented a 15ft penske truck and had a Saab 9-3 that I was towing behind it.
I could cruise at 75 easily and if I was lucky to have a down hill it would do some scary speeds fully loaded.
Up hill forget about it!!
Good thing out in the midwest they have a left lane just for truckers going up hill so everyone can pass them. I had to use it also, cause fully loaded with a car on the trailer I was lucky to do 45mph up hill.

Every Ryder and Uhaul Ive ever rented was governed at 65MPH. The throttle just cuts off over that.
We bypassed the governer before and thoes things do fly, they easily do over 100.

i gotta rent one of those soon... how do you bypass the governor? and what are your thought's on towing my firehawk on a u-haul trailer? penske told me that my car wont fit on theirs. i gotta go from boston to Ft. Worth, TX... so i'm not exactly thrilled about towing my car that far on a trailer. i'm pondering paying an auto transport company to move it if the price is right.

down hill baby,it was floored for some time,but i removed the airbox for that nice tone,and pulled some sensor off with it,not sure what it was but it was the only way to keep the airbox off,pulled a light but no biggie,and how do i post a vid online from a verizon phone,its only like 3 secs long but you can see the needle pegged and you can deff hear how scary it is lol
