well, i took my mostly sock 00gt to 135 once on a country backroad. took for freaking ever. and the car feels like its floating over 115 or so.

i dont do that crap anymore. I think its mostly fear of having to pay higher premiums over death though. u lose ur ***** when u get poor lol

 

i hate to argue, but ive had my sixxer w/ the needle burried at 120... i was scared **** less but i was curious, that was 3yrs ago, and i dont go over 60 in high ways, and 75 on interstate speed limit ( 55 and 70 )

 

ur speedo may be off. the computer is supposed to govern at 115 or 117 i though. alot of cars can be off on the high side. if they have to round the ratio at all they will err on the low side so u dont get caught speeding

 

Amen!!!

 

I got toa bout 134 in mine before I could hear my mom telling me to slow down in my head....
:P

 

Im not going to give you a lecture bc ive had mine up that high, and yes the car floats like a ****** at that speed....but i will say you shouldnt do that again...how long did you loose the car for?

Matthew

 

I got the car back today but I had to promise my madre i wouldnt do that again and I wont. Its fun cause i can drive very well but im just going to stick to the dragstrip we have in town as soon as it opens back up, and my mom keeps hounding my dad to make me take my graduation present (turbo) from me

 

You seem to have no remorse at all for the serious danger that you put people in, here's your future, only because ******** are never the ones to die

A car carrying four teenage boys -- one the son of a high-ranking sheriff's official -- crashed into a wooden pole on the side of a remote road Wednesday in eastern Hillsborough County, killing one and critically injuring two others.

The four teens, all from the Durant area, were riding in a two-door, black Chevrolet Cavalier.
David Dunlop, a 17-year-old junior, was driving. His close friend, Shaun Corbett, was an ROTC cadet who sat in the front passenger seat.
Two others sat in back: Ryan Mitchell, the son of a Hillsborough sheriff's employee, and Weston Gee, the son of the second-in-command at the Sheriff's Office.
All missed their 7:35 a.m. first-period roll call at Durant High School, according to school officials.
Nearly an hour later, they raced against a blue Mustang north up Henry George Road, a rural strip of asphalt wedged between railroad tracks and a phosphate mine, officials said. Witnesses told Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies that the Cavalier was driving in the left lane when an oncoming sport utility vehicle forced the Cavalier to swerve back into the right lane.

The Cavalier clipped the left tail light of a red Ford pickup in the right lane, spinning into a ditch and slamming into a pole on the left side of the road.
Shaun Corbett died instantly.
David Dunlop was flown to Tampa General Hospital. He is in critical condition.
Ryan Mitchell, walked away from the crash with a broken arm.
Ryan's best friend, Weston Gee, wasn't so lucky.
He suffered several injuries and also was flown to Tampa General Hospital.
His father, David Gee, arrived at the crash scene as paramedics were transporting his son from an emergency vehicle to the helicopter. Gee stood next to the stretcher talking to his son as paramedics prepared him for flight.
Gee removed his gun from its holster and handed it to a nearby deputy, then climbed into the helicopter with his son.
Weston was in surgery Wednesday afternoon. He has a broken femur and many other injuries, a sheriff's spokeswoman said.
Gee stayed at the hospital all day.
"His thoughts are with his son," said Debbie Carter, the spokeswoman for the Hillsborough Sheriff's Office. "He's also grateful for all of the thoughtfulness, phone calls and prayers from everybody."
The Gee family lives in Lithia, not far from where David Gee was born and raised. The family is well-known in eastern Hillsborough County, and not just because David Gee is running to be the county's sheriff in 2004.
Gee also has two daughters. Weston is the middle child.
The adults closest to the teens -- parents, school officials, deputies -- aren't sure why the boys chose to skip first period or race on a narrow country road.
"I truly don't know yet," said Lee Ann Mitchell, Ryan Mitchell's mother. "It's been a very traumatic day."
Detectives are still searching for the blue Mustang that was racing the teens' car, deputies said. It is unclear whether there were students in the Mustang. Authorities say charges may be pending. They also are investigating which of the teens were wearing seatbelts.
Durant principal Joe Perez sent a letter home with students, notifying parents about the crash.
School officials released little information about the teenagers, citing student privacy rules. All of the boys were juniors except Mitchell, a sophomore. Two of the boys -- Dunlop and Corbett -- were involved in the campus ROTC program.
Dunlop dropped out of the program in December, said Richard Sheffield, a senior aerospace science instructor who is also in charge of ROTC at Durant.
Corbett was a "very quiet" boy who was well-liked, especially by girls. Through ROTC, Corbett was beginning to become more articulate and assertive, said Sheffield.
"ROTC is a tight-knit family," he said. "There were some kids who took it pretty hard." The school mobilized its crisis team as soon as it heard about the crash. About 60 students spoke with counselors about their grief, said Patrick Canavan, a school psychologist. Counselors will be available all week long.

"Kids were focused on talking about Sean," said Canavan. "They referred to him as Jim Carrey, for his sense of humor."
Canavan said that many girls, it seemed, claimed to be Corbett's girlfriend at one time or another.
"He was just a terrific kid," said Vivian Corbett, Shaun's aunt. "He enjoyed his family and his life."
Canavan noted that Corbett is the third Durant student to die in a car crash this school year. "So many of our kids are inexperienced drivers," he said. "And our kids drive 90 miles an hour."

 

I've been through abilene very small town, that being said, you shouldn't be risking your life and others for a stupid stunt like that. I can't judge you too much, i've been 145+ on freeways, at one time, not a day went by I didn't hit 115 plus, oh the things we do when we have nothing to lose other than our own lives of course(the joys of ignorance). I can't even remember the last time I went 100+ on the freeway. I think the worst I ever did when I was young, was 95mph in a 35 zone racing a cutlass way back in the lat 90's(97ish), after my son was born, I had more to live for, wise up, it will only lead to jail or sudden death. Keep it on the track.

 

Dude, this story is 100% bull, even the worst driver in the world would blow right past your stang in a Porsche.

Second as has been mentioned the car has a governor that kicks in at about 118.

So it is easy to see this 100% bull. Just some high school kid suffering from small ***** syndrome spreading stories.
