Default Re: speed limits removed

Before the snowbirds moved in we used to have a 110 mile (177 km)stretch of what is now Florida's Turnpike between St. Cloud and Ft. Pierce that was flat, mostly straight and open except for on turn near Ft. Piece, and one exit at Yeehaw Junction where 441 crossed.

441 west of the gold coast was another. Built far enough inland that the U-Boats could not count trucks it was flat, nearly straight, and in the middle of nothing. Did have one nasty hook that could surprise people.

Remember one time testing an Abarth being prepped for Sebring....
