What, you guys don't believe me?

I had WinALDL running and saved the data file. I hit 235 MPH (in red) only for a moment, but...

Okay okay, it must've been some sort of an aberration with the readings.  Seriously though, I didn't photoshop these readings. It actually does indicate that I hit 235 MPH coming home from PetSmart today.

I've got to take the GT through AirScare in a few days. Just thought I'd hook up the laptop and run WinALDL, not that I really know what the heck to make of the readings.

235MPH? Little bit faster and you might be able to keep up with me.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

Haha. ICBC has accomplished one thing with this whole fiasco (Beyond pissing me off): I've been very, very cautious/slow, so as not to attract attention.

Yeah, pics or it didn't happen.

468MPH though, eh? That's on par with the Thrust SSC II jet speed runner. lol

Fastest I've honestly been in the Fiero (GPS confirmed) was 241KM/H, and that was downhill.

482KM/H is interesting and all, but what's more interesting? 'Fuel Cost: $0'.

 Pig for you. =)

Nice Rome.
So Pat did you have to buy a cable to run your WinALDL or
make a custom one? PM me back please.

Cheers mate,
