I'm not complaining, its just I dont know how fast I'm goin if its over 90mph, I know it might be able to reach 120, its got about 166,800 miles on it. The only reson why my speedo says 85mph is because of some stupid american law saying no speedometer can say over 85 to prevent speeding, it failed miserably and is now luckily dead. I was just very curious to if the OBC was limited to 85mph too, which it luckily is not :o)
I've just gotta watch out for cops if I want to use that feature....and I plan to use it...

Dont feel bad, I had my 85 up to 120, with 2 grand til redline,...this of course was in Germany on the Autobahn were this sort of "devient" behavior is tolerated...;)
PS Your speedo only goes to 85? Mine goes to 160...
PPS oh yeah, it was rock solid at 120 also
