159 mph? It probably wasn't accelerating much because..... that's about as fast as they go. Was it skipping cuz you were over-revving?

Your car is trying to tell you something. If you listen really closely you might be able to hear it... stoopid.... stoopid...

I think it's supposed to run dual 720's..... but I'm pretty sure 160 is about tops. Unless you're puerto rican..... how do they do that? They know something.
