    I've read somewhere 106 was a governed maximum speed, however, I went a briefly sustaind 107mph and it felt like there was more power left. I backed off not Knowing wether the tires would fail. This was on a high flat plain between Pueblo Co. & Trinidad Co. How fast can this car go? :p

    I've heard 136 mph if the governor is removed.
