Heh I just noticed you said that. Um, I was standing on the kickdown
trying to get past 120 for about an hour yesterday (could only go past
120 on downhills) and then a few more times throughout a 4 hour period.
Considering that at that speed I'm using 99hp to overcome drag, I wonder
if the skidplate would get me a few more mph.
