I don't know if it's the suspension or the length between the tires, but I can hit them at 70 with no issue at all. Barely feel them.

So I'm crusing home at 45 mph and I get a tailgater. I see the tracks coming up so I get on it a bit. He continues to ride me. So I hit it. Hit the tracks at 70 mph with him right behind me. I had the top down so I got a great view of him banging his head on the roof of his car followed by his immediate slamming on the brakes. Good times.
Hah!
