I certainly do. I dont want to be going down a straight stretch at Calabogie to be hitting a rev limiter at 150km/hr. What fun is racing if you cant race your car? :rolleyes:

Cars manufactured before Jan 1, 2010 will be exempt ... the performance industry will find a way around this for true competition vehicles ... a solution like the x-cal2 would be ideal - street tune / track tune ... the industry hasn't weighed in yet - wonder what they'll think about being forced to manufacture a vehicle with an Ontario-only limit - they may yet have some influence to bring to bear.

As someone who has had a fair bit of high-performance drivier training, I can honestly say that for driving on public roads I don't need a car that goes more than 150.
