So close to redlining. Whats your engine size and car make?

9icetoo: That's a 2.4L camry tearing up the asphalt. . Thats 195 km/hr. The speed limiter kicked in though. Does any one know how to disable that shit?

sawyerrola:


'at 5500 rpm on 180km (max gear ratio reached) then you have to check why your gear box didn't change from gear 4 to gear 5. at max gear without too much force on your accelerator, you should be below 5500 rpm at that speed because you should be cruising at this point. once your rpm needle is in the red, take a break. its just a waste of fuel. '

and i forgot to add that to take pictures at such speed, please take it easy on your acceleration. no risky multitasking with only 1 copy of your life....lol...

Chibzee: I have read all your posts and what i humbly have to say is that if you haven't sped with a benz or bmw still to confirm audi, then you are still on a long long thing.
Might sound strange to y'all but from okigwe to enugu, i extremely dusted a 2010 or 2012(not very sure) toyota hilux with a 1990 mercedes benz w124 230e. didnt know the dude though but we both felt the challenge between us and decided to hit it, though he got off much faster than i, but on the long run, i just breezed by and he just could not understand how and he couldnt keep up.....THE POWER OF BENZ!!!!!

You "outran" a 2 tonne pick-up truck in a Mercedes-Benz Sedan, and felt a sense of achievement? Now where's the sense in that? A truck is not meant to be a solid performer on tarmac.

It's like a sport bike rider feeling proud of outrunning a Kia Picanto. Go look for a Honda Accord 2.3 V-TEC, then I MIGHT just give you the respect you crave, despite the fact the Honda will most likely chew your Mercedes up, and spit out the tyres.

Kizyte:
Man! Do you want to commit suicide?

gmyguy: I did a 161km/hr on a busy 3MB...out maneuvering a G wagon which obviously has a better acceleration than my 07 4cyl accord, but I was a better driver and probably better handling on the speedway than a high centre vof gravity G wagon

9icetoo:
Nope. Would never dare that. Just wanted to find out when the speedo runs out. . Did that on the benin asaba express way. Those who know that road know how smooth and straight it is. Didn't maintain the speed for long though. Dropped back to 120km/hr after a few minutes. life hasn't got a duplicate you know. lol

cne010:

G wagon handles like a Trailer

Story story. Does a Toyota Hilux look like a performance car to u? You are just risking ur life in ur jalopy trying to outrun someone who is cruising in his safer newer car.

Easyyyyy were all just talking
nwayolly,.....but u see man, i dont
know about the weight of the car, but i
can tell you that the car (hilux) in
general is a pretty fast truck.
Now, i dont know how or on what basis
you guys or you in this case qualify(s) a
fast car because i can see you
mentioning honda. Now all those
Japanese cars a pretty fast but i dont
see the sense in a car being fast to an
extent that you feel the car slipping out
of your control(flying things).
so before i open my mouth to say that a
car is fast, it has got to have some
stamina to go by or with. and thats
what makes the benz stand out. i could
go as fast as the car can go feeling all
relaxed and in control, but trust me
when i tell you that some things i do on
my benz cant and shouldnt be tried on
so many other so called fast cars.
well longly and shorty said i dusted the
hilux, maybe you should try going
against a sound hilux truck with a fast
driver behind the wheels and see what i
mean and make sure your not on a
benz.

For the fact that u are beating ur chest that u outran a truck like the hilux shows a lot how crap ur so called Benz is, u should probably dash it out already. Maybe ubdont know that most hilux has a max speed of 160km/hr, that means u are already going beyond limit when u are on 150. Some newer ones have speedo up to 200km/hr but believe me it would take a very long stretch of road to get it to do 170 and rpm will be high.

If Toyota hilux is what u calk fast car, then Land cruiser Prado is a speed demon lol. My Honda accord v6 will chew that ur Benz.

No mind dat guy man, him wan use 1984 technology compare with 2000 technology. I know benz of old were very slow at start up 0-62 run. Plus their weight and and their gear ratios.
