Yeah, attempted manslaughter.
Still not even close to being correct. Just stop now.

During that high speed run I did manage to kill about 50 bugs, one of them left a nice yellow blob on the windscreen.

Bugslaughter?
Bugone or Bugtwo?
25 to life?
(yes we have that show Law & Order too here)

LOL, that is VERY true.

On the way to the NOPI show last month (on I-75) we were all following our chief mechanic, who was driving a mostly stock Miata, and pulling a trailer. He was running 90 MPH, and the rest of us had to keep up, so our entire group was running 90. Several long-bed four-door pickup trucks blew past us like we were poking along, and we were regularly being passed by other cars. The closer you get to Atlanta the faster the traffic flows. We were probably passed by more cars than we passed.

I second that...85 -95 seems to be the normal flow of traffic on I-75, 95, and even I-4 throughout most of Florida....the exceptions being known cop hiding spots, and annoying construction.

it may be worth commenting that consumer GPS isnt the most accurate thing in the world for calibration purposes.

As long as you acquire four birds and measure over a distance of at leat 100 meters the accuracy should be better than 1%. If it isn't you might want to try another make of GPS receiver.
