100 mph speed limited.REALLY?

fyr,
Yeah I actually have my H2 setup with all my gear for rescue and outfitted with flashers. I did that because when responding to a call it still seems most people dont want to get the heck out of the way of a BIG AZZ truck coming at them, so now I am giving them more reason. It is nice because if there is a situation in the woods, I just roll on in. Or if another Hurricane comes like last year and we get flooded in, I can still go out. (I have a picture of me and the Nat. Guard's H1 together when we were out on patrol and found a flooded area that people were trying to cross.

SMITH,
Dont worry about the top speed so much. I know you really arent and probably looking at it the same way I am which is "why restict". I think they do that alot with the trucks. Might even be a government thing. My 2006 Tundra was governed at 105mph. Found this out from the Tundra forum because they were upset too. I think the reason why is because usually the excessive weight and the higher center of gravity is alot different than a car.
Sure I feel that if you want to do something you should be able to do it, without someone telling you so (Ie. the seatbelt bell if your belt isnt on, or the restrictor on your speed, or whatever else).
It should be your choice.
