They had to limit you so you won't accidentally hit 88 mph when lightning strikes the clocktower.
The recall on that one would be costly.
Aaarrrggghhh!!! A clock tower with a 14 foot lightning rod!!! Just what I don't want added to my HoneyDoList!!!

Just set the time machine to go 20 years in the future so you can find parts to get it fixed!

My hybrid has topped 1 hundo here in Texas! Slam that pedal down and hold on!
Driving back from Kansas with my new Mav, I found myself having to slow down, too many times I was over 90 and did not realize it on Hiway 40 (old 66) it just rides so smooth and quite. The only warning was my wife! lol

Is there a way to remove those electronic restrictions?
An aftermarket performance tune will usually delete vmax limit (fuel cut) in the ECU.

Eco boost is electronically restricted to 112MPH. If it was not restricted it would be capable of speeds in excess of 140MPH.
If it could overcome air resistance. Even my tuned supercharged Lightning slowed down massively at 130+

Why all of a sudden have i received a msg on my dash board state: your speed limit i8s 80 mph? I can't beleive it! In southern CA with freeways speeds of 70-80 mph this is not possible. Anyone else ever have this happen and if so what can be done about it?
Try using your other key. One might have the M key set to limit you to 80 mph. It can be changed if you want

So did it turn out to be the key setting issue? I just want to know in case i need to run away from a tornado some day. . Or time travel and clock tower. I need to get that sports betting book.

The flux capacitor is recalled and currently on backorder with no ETA.

If you exceed 88 mph you get a Groundhog Day feedback loop.

I used to own chevys they all govern at 155-160 km/h (100mph) my maverick is faster... wont confirm nor deny how i found that out. Need plausible deniability. They impound at those speeds where i live.
