My old speed record on my RL was 130mph but last summer I broke that and hit in the area of 150mph. They said the car was limited to 130 but I guess my chip was removed

I dont know why you guys would drive that fast in a civic or delso. Those cars are so tiny and on such small rubber, God knows I wouldnt go that fast in an RL again. I know it all feels good but if you have to react to something on the road, neither your breaks or suspension are designed to work at those speeds.

I remember racing an M3 on the way back from Ajax on the 401 we got up to 150 (i'm assuming thats where its limited) and just sat there. It appeared as though there was a black cop car on the side of the road. Well the M3 must have just stood on his breaks and so I got on mine. There wasnt much there, yes the car started to slow down but the pads heated up really fast and I got alot of break fade.

I cant imagine what it'd be like in a civic.

Good fun though, an hour long drive was cut down to 20ish minutes
