Vert Top Speed?

A bill before the current Texas State Legislature wants to open up the speed limit on certain highways to 85 mph.

If it has the RS package with the 20" Pirellis 155 MPH. Other wise 118 MPH.

Are you worried your vert won't do 85?

Ops check good!

Nah....It's just inevitable that some Barney Fife will pull me or my wife over for exceeding the legal speed limit. I imagine doing 92 in an 85 willl cost me a lot less than 92 in a 70.....

Yes, in Australia away from the cities there is also no speed limit. It was fun for a few minutes, but then I was on the other side of the fence - what if Mr./Ms. Roo jump out in front of me? They are hopping all over the place, along with a bunch of other critters. Better bet is the Autobhan.
