    A GTP will trap around 95-100mph, a GT might hit 85-90mph in the 1/4 mile drag run.

    With the limiter at 105 or 110 or whatever it is you'll be fine. The GTP's are like 126 or something.

    Mine was stock 108. Of course, it got removed while it was in Germany, on the autobahn... It takes a solid 20+ miles to hit 140.

    Seriously Razer, no need to remove it. Your governor kicks in at 107-108 mph. I ran mine up there when I was younger (so was the car) just to see where it was. Haven't hit it since. No need to go that fast. Not on a highway and really not even on a racetrack. Remember your GP is 15 years old and has that many years of wear on it. Safety has to become a consideration. These cars were ok in their day with some decent modding but they can't compete with anything anymore. My brother has a stock Hyundai Sonata with a 4 cylinder putting out as many ponies as my 00GT. My advice to a 19 year old is have fun with your car but don't do anything stupid. We were all 19 once and many of us are lucky to still be here... most of us know people who aren't.
    Welcome to the Grand Prix family. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have enjoyed, and continue to enjoy, mine.
