Dont know leh, driving 110~120 for a few hour non stop no problem. I dont like the grip at 140 so did not cruse at that speed before.

Everything is relative bah. Sometimes on small road I get the feeling I'm going quite fast, yet its only 70km/h. On the other hand, on NSH, even 140 feels like 90. The wide highway and little car does give you the feeling.

Not sure if that's why you felt!  :smile:
