I would guess your car has a builtin rev limiter to keep you from blowing your engine.

I own an "87 MKIII n/a. I have driven fast and have the tickets to prove it. As a teenager I lived a relatively small town I did some some street drag racing. But, for your safety and the safety of others I suggest that you do not race on the street unless you want to go to jail after killing some one.

In Florida it is against the law to spin your tires on the road. A mandatory appearance before the judge. I do not know what the penalty would be.

Good luck and be safe,

so i just let out and let it get down to around 70mph and it was fine..
no noises or anything crazy..
but i was a little low on fuel so i just figured that was the cause so i didnt think much about it cause it seemed to doing fine..
so a few days later i was on the interstate headed to work and a 350z pulled up next to me so i just kept it in 5th and got on it and once again i hit 120mph and it cut out..
this time i had fuel and i wasnt even gettin into it..
i have no clue to what would cause this..?
it doesnt smoke when it happens or anything..
it just cuts out..
