Pulled over yet? Break IN period a mind game.

Anyone get pulled over yet? It's is way to hard to keep this beast under 75. Break-in period is huge test of self control.

I agree that it is nearly impossible to keep this car under the speed limits! The power and torque is incredible. I'm actually taking longer ways home from work to get a few extra miles in to reach the 1200!!

Oops! While I didn't let the RPM get too high I did hit 125 mph on the Autobahn.

Speeding or no toll tag??? I have strings tied around my fingers to remember at the border crossings in Austria and Switzerland.

Been pretty good on the RPM's, but going the speed limit is nearly impossible. Was on the highway today cruising when all of a sudden I am going 135. (feels like your going 80)
