[quote user="tomikawaTT"][quote user="Safety Valve"] <p>90, Hell. Ive gotten out of the 110's for some curves around the USA only to get back above 110 once everything was stable again.</p><p>THAT is all Im going to say, after all, 40 ton and 18 wheels....</p><p>[/quote]</p><p> I presume you're pushing a Volvo tractor with a speedometer that registers in KPH.</p><p><span class="smiley">[(-D]</span><span class="smiley">[(-D]</span><span class="smiley">[(-D]</span><span class="smiley">[:-^]</span></p><p>Chuck</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Yea shure uh huh. har har har, or even a Scania.</p><p>No, I had a 94 COE with a 500 detroit and unrestricted and no qualcomm to nueter it. Had it for 3 months. If I remember correctly NYC to the OH Line was only about 3 hours or so on good days instead of 7.</p><p>They finally programmed the computer to choke it down to 60 mph and it became very undriveable what with the power curve meeting the three top gears. They finally had to get rid of it and me. LOL.</p><p>I keep thinking of the possibilties with the TGV here in the USA. They can probably run St. Louis to DC in 4 hours instead of 2 days by Greyhound bus or amtrack.</p>
