   That's one way to think about it... On the other hand, 110 and 125
aren't really that far apart. I mean, how many Daks see above 110 on
a regular basis? (If yours does, I hope you've done some suspension work,
or you're flirting with trouble...) If you've still got a stock computer,
the governer will shut you down around 115 anyway. If you actually want
to go fast, you'll need a new speedometer anyway, 'cause 125 isn't really
fast... :-) Plenty of econoboxes will see 130. Me, I don't plan to
go much faster than 110, I'm working on gettin' there quicker than
most everyone else. ;-)
