Maybe I should not be complaining...The MF Diary said that it reached a speed of only 88...is this because it needs to be "Broke in" then it will top off at that speed??

Hey, 88 mph in a DeLorean and you can time travel! Well, if your Flux Capacitor is fluxing. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

What will 90+mph do to long hair? That could really hurt!

If it's anything like Superman: Ride of Steel at Darien Lake (and frankly it is), the ride will vary greatly from one time to the next. When S:ROS first runs in the morning with water dummies it barely crests the second hill. By midday, especially when it's warm, the thing just flies over that hill. I'm sure MF will be no different.

Cppsyclone, that's scary. We were both thinking the same thing. ;) But, hey, 88mph in a stainless steel vehicle, what else would you think of? hehe

well, I'm sure it'll still say 92 mph even if it doesn't get that fast... Look at Mantis and Mean Streak. I'm sure their top speeds aren't the same as they were when they debuted. Nevertheless, I'm confident MF will achieve it's 92 mph top speed.
