WRONG.

it's called aerodynamic drag.

there is no speed cut on this car, and there's no way he could have physically hit his rev limiter in the top gear without having at least 180whp on the car to overcome drag. (believe me, I've done it, with a turbocharger on the car)


I'm going to close this in assumption that your high speed run was done illegally on public roads. If this is incorrect please PM me and we can discuss.
