Hi guys
On my way back from derby this morning and some knob in a Mini Cooper s was right up my arse
As I tried to pull away the lude maxed out at 110 mph
Strange because I'm running a a5 with ATR cams and head with a skunk 2 intake and it usually flies round to 130 no probs
Any ideas ??

I have the same problem mate. Mine is a 2.3i auto and also wont go over 110mph. Its a bb2 ukdm, and I think its been restricted. Yours isn't by the sounds of things? Edit yours deffo isn't if you were getting 130mph in the first place!

You did remember to cast off the tow rope?
