In case anyone cares at all. Got to 130, then the ecu shut me down. :twisted:

Was it still accelerating somewhat decently at that point, or were you about to top out without the ECU?

Your a sick puppy. Fastest I been was 160 on Alligator Ally in Florida in a Lexus IS (first year model) Like the hood. Is it from RRM. What it cost to get it painted?

It was still pulling pretty decently. Prolly would've topped at about 150-ish with enough straight flat road and no limiter.

Had three passengers, left-rear seat passenger took the pic. I'm daring, but not stupid. ;)

Thanks? :lol: It's the RK hood that RRM sells. I bought the car from Select Suzuki in Frankfort, KY with the Platinum front bumper, rear spats, rockers and rear spoiler, and the RK hood, and roof spoiler. I had been following the build as it was being done and when I found out the car was for sale I jumped on it as it was exactly what I wanted to build. The GM at Select Suzuki and I have extremely similar tastes.

I was still in 5th and IIRC the RPMs were about 3500. I know for a fact there was a LONG way to go before redline. 8-)
