• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

2014 2015 2016 RT Top Speed?

Can you tell me what "cahones" mean? Never heard of this word before.:dontknow:

Cohones' is Spanish for Testicles. Used quite a bit here in the "old Pueblo". In Colorado we called them "Rocky Mountain Oysters".

FYI There is a small town in Montana that has a "Testicle Festival" every year. Maybe we should have a Spyderfest there one summer during this

world famous event.

Probably more information than you needed to know, but I am always here to educate the ways of the world we live in.

I'd have to calculate the air resistance, but I'm pretty sure that the terminal velocity would be over 200.

It would be a one-run sort of a deal though, and I don't care enough to find out personally...

In ECO mode I cannot get above 95. Do not even think about passing above 65 unless you have 3 miles to do it. There is no zip in 6tgh gear after 60.

6th gear is actually an overdrive gear. Mine has plenty of Zip in 6th gear. Shift down to 5th if that is not good enough for you. I have never turned my ECO off since purchase. FYI I have had it to 115 in passing. Maybe something is wrong with your Spyder. I would take it to a dealer a have it checked out. (plugged injectors,plugs etc.) Something is just not right.

How about bollocks and burgers?

I had to give Darren111 equal time with British slang. Some on here are acting like wankers.

Speed

The subject of top speed certainly seems to be a subject that receives the full spectrum of responses. In my younger (less wiser) days speed was what we all strived for. The resulting costs or tickets, broken equipment and insurance did not matter. We just wanted to go fast. Now, for myself, attaining top speed is not the issue. Cruising along, listening to a sophisticated highly tuned power plant is the reward. The faster you go the less you see.
 
So it's okay for him to expect one of us to risk our lives? :dontknow:
Bob, Bob, Bob. Sometimes I do think you hit the reply button before you have fully pondered a comment! :gaah: If you read closely I said in essence, "...wonder if someone has...", NOT "...expect one of us to...". :thumbup:
 
All I know is my 2014 will go fast as I want. Change the speedo to kilometers and it will approach 200 easily😃👍🃏🃏
 
My gosh....cool your jets .... I just asked a simple question...I have no intention of riding the Spyder at top speed or expect anyone here to do so....I get asked all the time how fast will it go.....I don't always feel I can just tell someone I don't know but the speedometer says such and such....If it was documented somewhere by someone who actually knows I could then honestly answer someone correctly. It was a simple question with no hidden agenda. I doubt I'll do that again here.

Dont let these clowns put you off. A lot of people feel the need to comment on every single thread instead of just passing it by if they dont like the subject, or tell you to search it when the search feature sucks. To much time on their hands. id tell people between 120 and 130 and thanks to this thread that is what i am going to say next time someone asks me.

Actually Bob they are quite good. They taste a lot like the Fried Clams we all used to eat at Howard Johnson's. As a

matter of fact I am not so sure those were clams after all. :yikes:

I grew up on a Ranch in Colorado and we had them every spring after Branding, Dehorning and of course Castrating. VFW, ELKS lodge and the Armory served them in the Spring when

available.

You City Folk have a lot to experience I guess. :joke:

:shocked: CITY folks?????? :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
Call me a prude if you like; I'm just not fond of putting anything that hangs off the Southern end of a Northbound animal, into my mouth. :yikes:

Ironic you mentioned Howard Johnsons. Considering that Howard Johnsons first two restaurants and the original Dunkin Donuts was from the place I was born and grew up. I have dug clams on the beach where HoJo no doubt got them also in the early years. Kind of sad to see the entire Americana diner thing of the originals going away.

I know but if I tell all....
