Nobody beats my high scores. Nobody.

E: actually, some trivia. You have seen those "your speed" signs with an led readout? Now I can't say how I know this, but - at least on some variants, models, etc - there is an upper limit/safety check. "if user's speed variable is higher than X, turn off the sign, it's malfunctioning" logic. So, just for a hypothetical situation, the assigned speed limit is 25mph but you go through at, I don't know, let's pick a number that is absolutely not what I tested, and say 60. The readout will reach that number as the user accelerates towards it, hit the upper limit, immediately shutoff, and will (afaik) need to be reset manually. Returning hours later reveals a dead readout. Returning a couple days later, oh hey it's back.

So we already have this, but it'd be nice to get scores higher than like ~40 over. And history, sharing...
