Its like a first amendment right, freedom of speech but don't talk too much, lol. Kind of a double standard.
Umm,I believe it's a privilege not a right.Intrepidman21 said:Its like a first amendment right, freedom of speech but don't talk too much, lol. Kind of a double standard.
The OEMs don't give a crap how fast you drive, they don't set the speed limits on the roads. They DO set the speed limiter relative to the stock tires offered on the vehicle as part of "due diligence".Intrepidman21 said:one thing I never did understand about car manufacturers is if they don't want us speeding, why in the hell do they make cars that can go so fast???
Lol... that wouldn't be duly diligent. Law suits would abound from parents of dead children who've 'easily' disabled this (active) safety device.OscarTheGrouch said:They should just make it easier to get rid of![]()
I have to call B.S on the 143mph, thats 230kph. I have the 3.5 H.O in my SXT and it bottoms out at 111mph or 180 kph. If what you say is true, I work in Brampton and would be more than happy to see you do it! :bsflag:CDN R/T said:Good to hear Oscar...

The stock limiter on the 300M PHP, Intrepid R/T, and 300M Special is 143 MPH as set by the latest update of the PCM programs for those cars. There are rumors that factory PCM's were set even higher. And all those cars came equipped with "V" rated tires from the factory.Nemitz said:I have to call B.S on the 143mph, thats 230kph.
