Talking Weekend in Utah (Videos an Pics Included)

So I went up with a friend to his hometown in Utah, little small town in the middle of nowhere, population 236. Anyway, I haven't been a huge fan of this state having to live here because of school, but this made it worth it. Being as he lives in the middle of nowhere, there are tons of long open roads and no cops. Had some fun, hope you guys enjoy the vids.

First one is of me hitting top speed, 141 mph. Saw a thread about top speeds the other week, thought I'd try my new GT out. As you can see, the road is completely deserted.

This one is of doing a small burnout, had a few other videos that I wanted to show for a review of my new SLP Loudmouths, but there's some pretty heave wind noise so I'll see what I can do to get em up. May just post them with the background noise.

Anyway, hope you guys like them. Please don't post about how this is dangerous and I shouldn't do this on public roads. As you can see, these roads might as well by private, in thirty minutes we only saw one car drive by.


Edit: To provo how small this city is, here are two pics I took filling up at the towns only gas station. I'm not making this up.

It's out in Vernon Utah, or at least nearby. You'd have to google map it, it's a small town of only 236 people. Aka nowheresville USA

Lol you seriously know that area? That's hilarious, you're probably part of only a handfull of people! Most people here in Provo don't know what Vernon is. Btw, my second vid, the burnout, was done there on pony express rd.

More people seem to know about this place than I thought. Speaking of racing on state street, I was out washing my car on one of those handwash places on state, making fun of the mexicans washing their civics with fart cans attached, and two kids pulled up. One was driving a 240sx and the other a 300z, with some decent work done to em. They told me they do some racing on state st, invited me to go with em every friday. What time would you usually race at? I have yet to see anyone there.

Id normally leave lehi at about 6 then just cruise to provo on state and back a few times every night. Id always end up having 6 or 7 races a night on average. Just getting stopped at a red light next to someone else.

That place is ricer heaven man. Every 17 year old kid there has a wrx with exhaust it seems like. And they think they are all the fastest car around.
