none of them are around here, i wouldnt suggest doing over 65 on ANY roads near my house. even the local highway is so crowded its hard to do 75.

ok i think i speak for most of us here when i say most of us mod our cars to do the 0-60 not the top speed. too much to lose at thoes speeds

here in south texas..the new expressway 77 was all redone. real nice road, all level and no probs on it. i took my 96 gt auto up to 140 MPH once..didnt feel the speed, before gear change to 4.10 that i plan to do. real nice, however its easy to see if something small goes wrong..that is it.

**** where i live the 6 am work rush...the flow of traffic is 90-100 mph on hwy 459 and 59 coming into the city in the morning in groups of 10-15 cars
if you are going 80 mph you will get run the **** over.

I agree, usually on public roads I'll shut down before 80, maybe 90 on the higways if the roads are totally clear. I'm actually scared to death though of being pulled over at that speed though.

saying this from personal experience, if you pass a cop sitting still while going 140+ mph he's probably not going to ever see you again if you just keep going(they never did see me again 5+ times)
