    We tow the race cars in a private Freightliner with a caterpillar and a 10 speed and it has NO governor. We've been about 105mph in it quite easily, but again this a "todder home" and the load is only 3 2500lb race cars and and the neccessary stuff for the track day.
    I'd assume commercial trucks that drivers don't own all have limiters.
