Parang yung ginawa ko sa suzuki fronte ko napaabot ko ng 130km/h malapit na ang sagad sa gauge ay 140km/h slipping clutch pa..hehehe.

Probably not that close to blowing up. Most 180-200hp cars can go over 130 mph anyway.

As it is, the speed camera may have been off a bit... but 140 mph plus is quite possible with a front-wheel drive V6. That's why most of them have 135 mph speed limiters.

Maybe the cheap rental ones don't have the limiters installed?

236kph hayuf stock pa.

147 mph.... There's no way even the new V6 Sonata could do that speed. I know because I own one of them mommy-cars .

Anyway, I'm familiar with that route because it takes me on the shortest road to Nevada. People do fly by that route except when the cops are about. The picture quality of those traffic cameras is nice. My wife was right when she told me not to flip off the camera.

it might have been going downhill....?

I know Loop 101 from several trips back and forth to Nevada. It's about as hilly as going from Alabang to Cubao.

Hmm. Damn traffic cameras. Back in '01, I did 120mph on a rental Sebring. Kakatakot na noon, the fabric top sounded like it was gonna rip off.

[basti08]

ay tama... 137mph pala....anu ba yung iniisip kong 121mph?

[Syuryuken]

anu ba yung iniisip kong 121mph?

Baka yung ginawa mong record sa EDSA he he he he

[mazdamazda]

if it's a M/T mated to the V6... that's possible given clear roads, no head/cross winds, no uphills...
