80km/h??? Or much more wherever safely possible. But ALWAYS between the yellow lines

Ever passed anyone going around a clover-leaf on-ramp?

That gets the attention of those young corner-cutting whipper snappers.

Ya, I know. I should save it for the track. Next year?

Mods or not, I'm limited to 155mph, QUOTE]

155 should get you there soon.

I have no idea how fast my Yaris will go. Cornering is where it's at for me.

I dought I've had it past 145 KPH.

The Yaris is limited to 188km/h. It takes 5 days (6 days for the auto) but it will actually get there. I have heard of a GPS showing an MS3 hiting 265km/h which is actually 161mph...wondering if it is actually limited at all, haha.

Actually, I was jerked forward the last time I hit the limiter. With some good wheels and the right speed limit,the manual Yaris probably can sustain 160km/hr all day without a hickup and still return decent fuel consumption. Unlike my 4cyl RAV4 which seems to work too hard to maintain 140km/hr.

He's not kidding anyone, but I think he understands the responsibility concept that escapes most socialists...
