a/c at 120mph.

does anyone know why the a/c shuts of at speeds greater than 120 mph? I don't think this is a problem I'm just curious?

I think it cuts out at wot. Not sure if it is speed related, but when I lap at the local track, I leave it on and it seems to keep me cool since it runs in the brake zones and the corner entries.

WOT cutoff is at 5000rpm, not just WOT.

I wanna say... no way, this is not true (>120 cut out)... 150+ with a/c on. But nothing like a good excuse to out and test the theory....
