Doesn't the governor kick in? I thought I had seen someone on track with the governor kicking in at 138ish mph.

Maybe he has a tune? Lifts the governor?

It has been stated some very long time ago that the car does not have an electronic governor at 138 or 140mph or whatever. It was seen on a dyno a long time ago hitting 170mph. It reaches I guess the point where it doesn't have the power to overcome drag at around 138-140mph. This video could have a slight down hill thus allowing the car to break that barrier.

But again, as stated a while back, it is not governed at 140mph.

Also if you noticed his rpms were around 6500-6800rpms when he was at 152mph. Car's redline is 7500, thus confirming that hitting redline would be again around 170mph.
