Default 150 MPH warning sticker?

What vettes received these? Inside my driver door is a sticker recommending tire pressures for high speed driving...above 150 MPH!! :eek: I don't see it on all vettes.

Was it after GM lowered the pressure in the tires from 35 psi?

I don't have one, but it says something about making sure to increase tire pressure for speeds over 150. :)

Well I can't get a good picture in the garage tonight but this is what it says.

TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE INFORMATION
For competitive driving or high speed driving
(over 150 mph 240km/h) increase tire pressure
to 35psi (240 kPa).

The early Shelby Mustangs had a sticker on the dash that had something to the effect of "At speeds above 150 MPH drive with windows up" of course that's not the exact phrase, but a big bright sticker right in the center of the dash that says that is super :cool:

Someone at the dyno this weekend with a Black 95 (I'm pretty sure it had Heads/Cam/Intake/NOS...cuz it pulled somewhere around 450rwhp/470rwtq) had a little sticker/badge on the shifter console that said "At speeds over 150mph, please roll windows up." :lol: Everyone was asking him if that came factory. :crazy:

Great conversation piece.

For competitive drivng or speeds above 150 mph add 5 psi to the tire pressure.

Or something like that.

I love it.

I used to have one of these on a car I had in the 60's... It looked very 'official'. The responses from people sitting in the car for the first time was priceless!!! I've often wished I could find one to put in my vette. Maybe I could just make one of my own...

this one?




I like the tire pressure sticker too!

I put the "windows up" sticker on the passenger side visor.... people get a kick out of it!
