145 MPH no problem in Sand/M mode on a deserted toll road at 1am. Still a few MPH left in it but speedo wont go any higher and the ESports get a 'little light' at that speed. Dont think I need to try it again,on the  dyno maybe...

I'm sure you had a nice adrenaline rush.  I always get a little one when I hit 100.

Nice...I'm liking that sand mode. Mine seems to definately run stronger on the street

Yes, as in not planted well to the road. I have an 89 928S4 Porsche and at 155 that thing is solidly in contact with the road. Yes it's apples to Oranges but just illustrating the difference. The shape of the Explorer says 'lift at speed' to me, plus I'm at stock ride hight still and that lets a bunch of unwanted air under the car. It's about what I expected, I may try it again after the coilovers(if we ever get a set developed from Megan Racing?) but dont see a reason to risk it again otherwise.
