Hey check out this vid I..eh the passenger made

http://home.wanadoo.nl/ee9/4gdownloads/civicvtrun1.avi

It's a top speed test of my new hatch
I managed to hit 230km/h (~144mph) on the speedo! over 7500rpm with that speed :) I know the speedo isn't completely accurate but still I thought it was pretty impressive.
oh, you can't really read the speedo but the last digit on it is 240 (just so you can "read" the speedo on the vid)

pretty :cool: or what?

It was on an open road with close to no traffic, the weather was good and it was in Germany on an piece of Highway with no speedlimit so it was all pretty safe.
Believe it or not but at that speed the car still felt relatively stable.
