Pretty stupid regardless.... but keep it on the track please. We don't want to read about how some guy trying to max out his car hits a pothole or debris and loses control of the car and dies.... Keep it safe.
This happened to me when I was a dumb teenager and my Mustang 5.0, won't say how fast I was going, but fast enought that when I did hit the pothole, I felt my entire rear end of the car lift in the air and go sideways. I think I did have to change my underwear too.........Anyways, I guess everybody has the urge to speed once in a while, but just be aware of the consequences.

Valentine's day is far from close. You have plenty of time to sign up for edating. I heard they have 64 dimensions of compatibility test. Might wanna give that a try.

What you guys really need is a few private roads.

I use to depend on my Escort to keep me out of trouble, but since I've had pretty much unlimited access to a few private roads I find it much easier to stay below ticketable speeds on public roads.

The problem with "saving it for the track" is its not trivial to find one with a long enough straight(s) to max out the car. Oh well. Beats jail and a suspended license.

I was scared because if caught going over 100mph, it's manslaughter and I'd be going to jail. No cars and a straight freeway of course. I'm old enough to not do retarded stuff anymore.
Generalization of the century.

Someone has to die for there to be a manslaughter charge.
Plus that 100 mph is not accurate (at least for where I am).
