My 119 feels slow compared to some of these and it was on the track. I have accidentally hit 90 going up onramps before, especially the long ones. Then I look down... Yikes! Don't want to get a ticket. But it feels so smooth...

I overdo on-ramps occasionally and have done 104 once when the car was still new to me, but now I have the top speed beep set to go off at 90 so I dont get into more trouble than I can handle.

Besides I'm more into the twisty kind of driving fun, although its always tempting to go faster since it just takes off so nicely and just keeps on accelerating with that securely planted handling.
