There are very few cops around here. Tax base can't support a huge police force so it works in our favor. Speed limits are 70 on the highways outside the city and most cruise at 80, so 90 isn't that far off.

When I travel to other parts of the country, the 55 or 60 speed limit is painful. It's the most frustrating thing to follow someone doing 50 in a 55 when you're used to crusing at 80.

In CA, you can be in a traffic jam at 80+..now that's a trip. Imagine driving through your garage at 80!

I can't remember the comedian, but he said, "there's only one correct speed, which is what you are traveling at. Everyone who is slower is an f'ing a$$hole. Everyone who is traveling faster is f'ing crazy!"

So true!

155 in the GT-R on a track. it was actually scary because you could see where the next down hill turn was right infront of you.

240 km/hr (~150 mph) on an autobahn north of Hamburg in a rented Benz. ~115 on the 101 in my Z.

I drove from Munich to Frankfurt and the only car they had at the rental was a Mazda 3 I believe. It was pegged at 110-120 (down hill with a tail-wind) and was like we were sitting still when the real cars passed by.

In my last post, I hit those speeds on a rally to vegas. Back roads, with open stretches for days.

I topped out a 350Z on the back roads to vegas too. It was a rev-up engine and it took forever to get to the limiter. I barely tapped on the brakes at high speeds in that car and it was really sketchy.
