The speed limiter is set to 135mph. A simple tune and you can change it if you would like.

The speed limiter is related to the tire rating, if you raise the limit get better tires.

Actually when you convert KPH to MPH, he is actually running at 170MPH! Pretty good IMHO.

Thumbs up

1 mph is 1.6 km

170 mph X 1.6 km = 272km
