Dammit you two lol. 0 to 60 in 10 seconds is rate of acceleration, while 35 is the limit. They both work without hitting infinite state, which in science, infinite means "i have no clue what the answer is"

You'll wish the limiter wasn't there once you get taken over while driving 257 on the cluster.

It's hard as heck to hit 164. I did it during clear, sunny spring day. Light traffic. Was scary AF. Car seemed to float a bit. Maybe at night, with less traffic, would be better. It's fun to hit though...once you get past having a brown spot on your underewear

Well, its zero if we are talking velocity.

Unfortunately, its not that easy to get 5-60 times, 25-100, 50-100, etc online. Well, rolling start ain't bad, but I've not had a rolling start experience. It's either been from dead stop, or coming off a turn, so anywhere from mid 20's to 80's depending on the curve.
