Re: Your speed records
'05 Chrysler Crossfire --> 132mph
'98 Infiniti i30 --> 122mph
Some of you guys make me look like a dare devil. Is it really that unusual for people to break 100mph on city highways?
I live in Kansas City / Overland Park... we certainly aren't a rural area.
I go over 100mph, on the highway, a few times a week.
I've been at or over 130mph twice, this week.
Christmas Eve --> 130 on a 65 on a city highway... because it felt great.
Christmas night --> 132 on a 45 on a reasonably-empty-but-usually-extremely-busy city street that I've always wanted to fly down... I was being toyed with by a BMW 6-series, (by which I mean we both knew I had no chance of competing.) I got a head start, and between 90 and 110, we were neck and neck. For those couple of seconds, I felt great. At just over 130, we flew by a well hidden police officer, who was radar-ing. I didn't wait to see any flashing lights: At the next intersection I flew left and the 6 flew right. I drove to the end of a dark cul-de-sac and shut off my car and lights. I sat there for about 10 minutes, let my heart slow down, took the long way home.
