So what's the fastest you've ever gone on a lonely stretch of a long drive (Part Deux)

This is better than listening to confessions in church on Sundays.
Would you bloggers please send me your FX before you leave on your next Vegas run? You don't want them to go to waste.

Small group of us on superbikes made it it from Gallup, NM to Flagstaff, AZ in 2 hours on a early July morning. We all touched 200mph at various points along the 40.

I maxed out a 1993 Buick Regal at 120mph on the return trip from New York to Boston back in the day. I really should have gone to jail that night.

More recently, I've gotten my Lincoln MKZ to 125, but only for a short stretch.

I only did about 110-115 somewhere in LA. I think it was on the 405 during gridlock traffic, but I was in the carpool lane. Sped past a CHP checking to see if we had the minimum 2 passengers for the carpool lane. What a dumb thing I did... we were all younger/dumber before.

My AMG Mercedes is speed governed by the computer to 155 mph. I routinely get up and touch 155 on long, lonely stretches of deserted highway.

150 + in a jacked up balanced and blue printed Pontiac Firebird Formula 400, on a lonely stretch of road in San Luis Obispo County where we did that stuff, back in the 70's during college. That was on a racing calibrated speedometer, routinely did 120+ in that beautiful street racer with forest green lauquer paint and avocado pin striping, and of course speed rated tires. Weird thing about that, when I was going 120-130 where I had been many times before everything seemed normal almost slow motion. When I got up to 150 where I had never been before everything suddenly accelerated and the telephone poles seemed like they were whipping by so fast I freaked out a little bit and shut it down before I augered into a pole!! That beauty was not tached out and it had 160+ . I've highly appeciated NASCAR Drivers ever since!

A few years later was briefly touching 150 in a modified Pontiac Trans Am on the way to Palm Springs but shut it down before the CHP could bag me, that speedometer was Not calibrated and the car was pretty much maxed out which was the other reason I shut it down. But I had two Hermosa Beach caliber chicks in my car and it got me my very first threesome !!!!

I once did 35 in a 25 mile an hour zone on my Y rated tires. When I realized I could have received a traffic citation I never went over 25 again.

I was so very lucky not to be cited

I have a question. Who got an adrenaline rush from the speed?

The last time I got an adrenaline rush was several years ago when we did a test ride on V-Rods in Laughlin. We got up around 140 MPH.

I deliberately own slow vehicles so I'm not tempted to seek adrenaline rushes.

Used to make regular 120 mph runs on 5 back and forth to the Bay area. Had a scanner that let me hear the radio transmissions of the "bad" guys' flight operations at least 10 miles before I got to them. My hood was being sucked upward from the low pressure. Had Z rated tires and a turbocharger and luckily, a speed limiter. Glad to still be alive.
