Vmax

Post by Graeme4130 » Mon Jun 03, 2013 5:25 pm

Have any of you guys tested the speed limiter yet ?
I've not had a chance to in mine, but I'm heading up to a forthcoming VMAX event, so would be interested to see how it compares to others ?
Also, is there an alternative available yet to Audi's rather pricey increased speed restriction ?

Hi
Not sure if you picked my DM up earlier, but you do need to remove the date please
The organisers ask that dates are kept from public forums, I assume, to stop creating an audience and potentially unmanageable safety or privacy issues

I'm guessing you were waiting about 9mins.
