Nobody thought to mention a track day at a Road Course? Like Road America, or any other SCCA track.

You guys are nuts with the top speed runs on the street.

HAHA...I have no idea. I just looked for it. I believe it only read 180 though.

ive heard of guys going to the extremes to ensure not getting pulled over.. 3 4 am runs. one guy stops on an onramp. another guy goes to the end to the next exit.. this way u ensure no cops on side of road and none on that stretch.. i guess thats an idea if cops are ur only concern

So does anyone knowwhat the punishment is if you are caught going 130? I assume it differs by state, but how bad is it?

Loss of license for sure. You'd probably take a ride to the county jail also,in which casesomeone would have to come bail you out. It would suck, I know that much.
