I always stay at or below the speed limit. The speed limit sign is the maximum speed. In my state the max vehicle backup behind you is five. Then it's stated to allow to pass when safe. I would go what ever speed you feel safe. You don't have the brake capacity when towing as a sports car.

I've tried looking up the max vehicle backup in CO but haven't had any luck. Is there an easy way to find out if CO has this sort of law?

Even if it isn't law in CO, it still is the courteous thing to do, and can prevent dangerous actions as lines of cars try to pass.

But I agree with the others... don't out-drive what you are comfortable with. But please do the world a favor and keep your speed consistent.... I.e. don't speed up when you get to a passing lane simply because the lanes are wider. Being inconstant is way more dangerous and frustrating to other drivers compared to going consistently slow.
