If the car is "drag limited" that means there is either a deficiency in aerodynamics and or horse power. And aerodynamics goes farther than just the drag cof but I’m not going to go into that. If the car is “electronically limited” at 155mph I don’t doubt that it could reach higher speeds but the real question is how staple / safe is the car at those speeds. You have to ask yourself why the car was “electronically limited” at 155mph and the answer is probably because the car isn’t very safe beyond that speed due to aerodynamics. My MS3 is also “electronically limited” at 155mph and has a drag cof of .31 (pretty decent) It feels plenty staple at 155mph but I wouldn’t trust it much beyond that nor would I want to. Imagine getting clocked at 155+, I doubt you'll see your car again lol!
