I have told this before but I hit 159 at Texas Motor Speedway several years ago in my Cobra coming out of Nascar turn 4.....I had replaced my rev limiter from a 6200 chip to 7000 RPM chip. As I crossed the start finish line my enigine went completely silent after a shutter and a bang. I pushed in the clutch and all I could hear was the wind. I would never do that again because of the cost to repair 427 FE. Now I keep my 6000 Rev limiter ship in place and seldom bump up against it (unless I need to clean the dirt off my tires in the country).
