flixden Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Wow, where did you do that? No speed limit? I am sure there is a limiter. Even cars sold in Germany have a limiter built in: 250km/h (= 155mph) as far as I know, but that thing can be disabled over there, I heard. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
