Im gonna say it'll max out at about 130 (give or take 1mph)...but ive personaly had it goin 140+...(i was goin down a big hill, and shifted it to neutral).

If its governed to 125 then how come sooooooo many members claim to have gone in the 130 range? Hmmmmm... somethings wierd here.

Personialy I've had mine to 120ish several times but haven't found any signs of a limiter.

I hit 135mph but I was going down hill. On a straight-a-way I can only do around 125mph.

I think it all depends on your alt, I can get to the end of my speed gauge and still move faster, like I said about the cop rader'ing me. Its just one of those things. But the problem still stands of the gas you waste to get there. Besides the risk you take at that speed. Keep the speed on the track and off the public roads. Or you will end up like those racers on tv.
