I've gone 137 mph. Got there pretty fast and slowed done pretty fast also. I made a quick lane change and it was very smooth. I had 4 persons in the vehicle also!!

I'm guessing because the governor on the car is supposed to be 135MPH...and Shnarfin got it to 137 w/4 people...I'd say that's pretty impressive and seems it didn't seem to be too strenuous on the car - cool!

I thought I read that the mini was drag limited?

It makes sense since it is not too areodynamic.
