Is this just something with Dodge cars? I clocked 117MPH in a rental CALIBER SXT going home from class on a whim.

117MPH in a 1.8L 4CYL at 3800RPM!! WTF!? My Exploder couldn't do this in it's wettest dreams without shaking itself apart..

It was totally awesome though. And the only reason I got away with it was because at that point in I-94 the East and West bound lanes are at different levels (road itself is on a slight hill side perpendicular to the direction of traffic) so there couldn't be a cop there even if they wanted one.
