Got up to 115 or so (Hwy 5) with the Mars Rover but wasn't really trying,
just breaking in the motor. Cruised like that for 15+ min. till traffic came
up.
Same mods (came from the RIP car above) with more displacement (tt engine)
and FF tranny should be good for 130+.
Need to install my 220km speedo and then I'll try it next time I'm out on
Hwy 5
