I assume that anyone taking it over 100mph is utilizing one of these many roads. When I had my vorteched 06, I was on a road in the central valley of California in the middle of miles of fields with nobody and I mean NOBODY in sight and you bet your a*# I opened it up and pegged the Speedo. I'm glad I did it. It was fun. I'm gonna do it again. I assume everyone here is an adult and responsible. And also to those disrespectful posters don't be calling anybody an f#*% idiot unless you are ready to back it up with your fists. That disrespect is unacceptable to me. If anybody does that to me I will give you my address and phone number and I will arrange for a time to meet and discuss the disrespect man to man. I thank the original poster for his post. What he did was completely legal where he did it. And if he felt safe enough to do it, i defer to his judgment. STOP THE NAME CALLING AND DISRESPECTING!
You are right, many of us do speed, and I admit, I once took my own 'Stang to triple digits on an interstate when the highway was open and free and clear of other people.

I didn't stay at over 100 for long because I finally came to my senses and realized that I was about to enter a known speed trap.
Did I do anything to hurt anyone else? No. But it was illegal none the less. And I would have gotten a ticket if I carried on at that speed into that speed trap area.

Yes, but were you videotaping it?? Did you drag your son along for a speed trial?

I hit triple digits in school zones... I figure the faster I go through it the safer for the kids. This way I am only in the area for 5 seconds instead of 30. Less traffic see. Safer...
