With all the talk about speed limiters you might find this funny. A buddy
of mine sent this to me from his ford list! Dak content - I would never
drive my truck this fast! (And it shows the mental capacity of our
adversaries!)
<<From Ford Owner:>>
I've had my blown (Vortech Supercharged) and Superchipped 7.5 Liter
Crewcab Dually up over 124mph (estimated by a GPS receiver). And
I say "up over" because I was slowing down after seeing Local Authorities
on the side of the highway.
If your familiar with "Gear Vendors Under/Overdrive" units, these also
fool
the PCM. If I use my overdrive unit with no Superchip installed, there
should be a governor. But I simply leave my truck in overdrive and then
engage my Gear Vendors Overdrive... this puts the truck in ultra
overdrive. If I'm doing 90... I'm turning about 2100 RPMs. And being I've
had the RPM up to 3500, this will tell you I was hauling some butt. AND on
my 105MPH rated tires. But remember.... those 105 rated tires are a
sustained speed rating. Not a short burst rating. Then again... who can
sustain over 105 on any normal highway?!
This brings this whole email thread question... I received a citation from
a state trooper. He clocked me at 107. Wrote me for Reckless Driving.
Oddly... I am looking to fight this being I have a top speed governor on
my truck. Heck, the judge doesn't know about my Superchip or the use of my
Gear Vendors Overdrive. And thus it makes the officers testimony null.
SO HELP ME OUT..... Where's this evidence of a "TOP SPEED GOVERNOR" I'm
looking for?
Hehehehe... Keep it safe,
John

OK, so you want us to help you beat a ticket you admit you earned. You
want to document the governor function, but neglect to inform them of your
installation of a kit to cut it out.
Do you understand what you are doing? It's called 'Obstruction of
Justice', most of the time that is a FELONY. Then you want us to help
you,
that's called 'An Accessory to Obstruction of Justice', which can also be
a
FELONY.
Also, the State will probably know about the governor function, they
tend to be car nuts and well informed. They would know about kits to
override that function.
I suggest you forget the entire thing and pay the fine. A felony
conviction would be reported to the INS and you would be headed home,
never
to return.(Assuming you are a Swedish citizen working in the USA for
Erickson, like your address suggested). Other wise you could just end up
in
jail (and probably lose your job)

Ya right, you have a ticket for Reckless Driving, that you want help to
illegally beat, and then you say 'keep it safe'... ya right
Oh yes, way I am at it, did you bother to read my request that people
trim unneeded text in their replies? Your's had four footers and more
header crap then was needed for your reply. If you can't be bothered to
not
ask us to commit a crime at least give us a break and not send a 5k bytes
(or so) of unneeded crap.
