Basically the car drove normally up to about 4000 rpm then hit a brick wall because the rev limiter was dropped in limp mode. But it was easy to know it was the speed sensor because my speedo read zero. If your speedo's working it's not a wholesale mechanical faliure of the speed sensor like I had.
Correcto.......anytime that I have ever had a CEL it was accompanied by a flashing cruise lite. This one just seemed odd as there was no CEL. My speedo works fine, it just seems to run a little low when I am at the track.
