    Hey guys i raced a 300m and a RX-8 last night. I knew the 300 i would beat but the Rx-8 i wasnt to sure. Anyway we start from a 60 role and i get out in front of both of them by a half of car, the 300 we leave and its just me and the 8 going at it. I knew he would get me top end no matter what but still i felt good knowing that i had his ass for a bit.

    Whats a good thing to do to get rid of that 110 cut off?

    Gonna try and post the video from my phone.

    Get a tune. Nelson can easily change your spped limiter, as long as you have a newer style PCM.

    These trucks have a lot more than most think. I hate my limiter. I am going to get that changed soon also.
