Come on guys wake up. This is simply not possible without some combination of:

1. Not stock
2. Good down hill
3. Tail wind

Maybe 204 indicated on the speedo, but I'd like to see a GPS readout to confirm. Too much slop built into the standard speedo at those speeds.

I noticed that. Do you guys think the vehicle indicated speed is more accurate than the speedometer? Either way, you need GPS to confirm

Pretty cool tho and the engine temp stays in check the whole time, nothing out of the ordinary

I totally agree. Although, even if it had a chip/exhaust etc.. and it was going "down" hill" with a "tail wind" and it was still able to reach 204 and not disinagrate, I'm amazed!!

Where did you get the idea it's stock? I don't see anything about that in the video.
