Wow 105. I admit to having the Nismo up to 130 and my ktm bike up to 140. But if I got caught I would fess up to it. Btw, the nismo is super smooth and quiet at 130. The bodywork really generates some real downforce. As for the bike I had to teach and M5 (older version) that his car can't out accelerate a superbike.

Bend over and spread them. Not even a reach-around. 105 mph.......mmmmmmmmm In this state of Pa. Anything 25 mph over the speed limit is kiss your licence good-by. 105, I would try and fight. Even just to get it reduced.

105 is a bad number in California. I am sorry for you on this. How long were you in custody, and how did your car get to the police station?

105 mph = 168 kph

Here that will get you charged with street racing and dangerous driving, a $10000 fine, loss of license for 7 days, impounded vehicle (towed on the spot) for 7 days, and all the fees associated with towing and storage at the impound lot. Not to mention the unaffordable price hike in insurance... Assuming you can still be insured.

In Texas, even the police understand that it takes 20+ hours to drive across this state even at 100 mph (which is only 20 mph over on about 60% of I-10 where the speed limit is 80). I knew a kid in high school who had a cop write his 120 in a 70 as 90 in a 70 on the ticket. A very close friend of mine was in the car with him and confirmed the tale.

I just watched some Austrailian V8 Supercar racing and this guy passed at 300kmh just before entering a curve Makes me want to go get a ticket for speeding and reckless driving j/k of course

I had about two unobstructed miles of turns today with the Z. Then for the second time, met with an exquisite young lady from the south, with an accent that melted me. she proceeded to stroke my ego (only). This is the sort of thing that mentally screws me up for awhile.

To illustrate: I just spent the last two minutes thinking about her, instead of submitting this.
