Fastest you've gone in your vert?
I've gone about 140 with the top down before I started to back down. I know the governor is set at 155mph. Does anyone know why? Whats the fastest you've gone? Anyone get a tune?

I had mine up to 154 and let off because off running out of room. Ironically, I read about the 155 speed limiter after that. I did have the top up at the time.

Haha that’s pretty funny. I wonder if the limiter is discarded with the top down or if it’s always in place because it’s a safety issue.

I've hit 145 or so in mine, top up. Also got close to that (140 maybe) with top down and windows up. I feel bad for her when I do that, all I can think about is bugs dirt and tiny rocks hitting her :( but hey, whats the car good for if you can't have some fun in it?! It was made to drive not baby!

Only got up to 117 on the toll road but backed down due to traffic and possible law enforcement.

Got to a buck thirty with the top down. She was still pulling. Have since had some mods done but don't think I will need to find top speed. Maybe go to the track this summer.

Passed a car heading south out of Winslow Arizona, Road was clear, weather was good just couldn't find a reason to back down. Top was up as it was a hot summer afternoon. 144 out of a V6 not sure it had much more left. I would like to try it again some cool morning with a light load of gas and the tires pumped up a a little bit.

Does it count on the dyno? We had to remove the rev limiter in tuning so that we could get a pull in 6th gear. Whatever mph you hit in 6th at 6500rpm’s...that’s what we hit. I think it’s 186 or something...but don’t really know.
On street, the WickedSS has not been out much this year. I need to do a better job getting her out of the garage for the rest of the year while weather is nice.
