Box2D max velocity

Hi guys,
When making No Brakes I bumped into a velocity limit, when the car just wouldn't travel faster. Luckily that limit were in excess of 600 mph in that particular game, so I didn't think much more of it. Now, in my new game, I have a kinetic body that I want to move very fast indeed, and have yet again bumped into this limit.
Now, I found a comment which explains:
Is this a property I could access and change somehow? If not, is there any other trickery I can employ to make bodies move very fast?

Now, I found a comment which explains:
"There is a maximum movement limit of 2.0 units per time step, given in the file b2Settings.h in the source code." |

Maybe try rescaling your objects with:
b2.setScale( x ) ----- (try some number like 2,3 if it will be faster than i am right)
function.
This is totaly an experimental answer i never tested it nor coded something complex in box2d
Maybe this kinetic body will have to stick to the speed limits...
