my car for some reason has more get up and go at 70-90 than it has from 30-60 mph....
My W116 is wheezing at 90......my W123 is still picking up steam at 90....
Its definately leathargic below 40 mph on the other hand....hey I can't explain it either but I was passing everyone...and I mean everyone up that mountain......and 80mph is average as the posted limit in WVA is 70mph
If I wasn't there I would not have believed it either.....
