I had more speed than sense with that car! It WILL do 155mph. The problem for me is that's it too easy to get into the 120s+ in a hurry on public streets when racing built ricers, WRXs and other cars that can hang with you up to 100-110mph. That's when their's start getting squirrelly and the Viggen above about 70mph really settles in a for solid ride--the aerodynamics are that good! By the grace of God nobody pulled in front of me on one of my stupid in-town rocket rides. Now I'm climbing rocks at 5mph and the worst I can do is break an arm. As much fun as it is, remember, speed kills. Lecture off.
