180MPH Fun!
First off I would like to apologize for not having video to support my claims , I had the camera with me but it was sitting at grandma's house charging. Anyway I have to say at lower elevation my car is an animal, It was about 45 degrees out and I had my Uncle in the passenger seat and my Dad in the back-LOL. I took it to about 60 and floored it, It down shifted and began to pull steadily to about 145 then slowed down a bit up to 180, Actually 170-180 took a while as the car was fighting to get there. I was a little nervous as we held the 180 for about 15 seconds, All I could think about was a tire coming apart or some other catastrophic event putting an end to the fun. We did 2 more 180mph runs before we called it good and headed back to Grandma's house to recieve a note worthy *** chewing from my Aunt. But hey we had a great time doing it and nobody lost an eye. This all happened in Mexico on a very desolate 20 mile straightaway with zero traffic.
Feliz Navidad
