[QUOTE=martz0r]What the fuck is the point of a governor if you have it set to 180 + mph over the speed limit?

253mph or 300 you're going to die when you crash either way.
The governor is set at 253 b/c of the tires, Bugatti claims having any higher speeds could cause the tires to fall apart. They wanted reliable tires that can handle 250+ mph speeds plus be able to support the 4800lb car. Theirs no speed limit on the Autobahns...
