Some guy got nailed doing 200 in an F40 because he videotaped it and sold the tapes.
Yah, I saw that on Max X too. I guess if he could affford the F-140 he could afford the ticket.
You think all you get is a big ticket for doing 200? Think again.. I heard they took the car and threw him in jail. Not sure about that tho.

Where does it say that? I was just poking around the site and I couldn't see it.
Speed limmits are too low. [q/]
Correction.. Speed limits are too low for sports cars.. All other cars - family-filled SUV's, for instance, should be stuck at the speed limit.

I went down to the Gumball 3000 when it came through New Orleans. Two guys in Diablos were checking top speeds (they were looking at trip computers or something inside the car) and they both said 186 as their top speed for that day. There was a guy in a Koenigsegg that said he hit 245 mph but I call shenanigans. He was going faster then the two guys in the Diablos though, they were complaining that they couldn't keep up.

yeah i think that's bull, even with 210mph he would be smoking those two diablos already, 245 that's too hard to achieve i believe
Wow, good thing that the drive didn't jam when the motor blew. Having the rear wheel skid at that speed would be more than a little bad.Originally posted by: oldsmoboat
In 1982 I was arrested for "Speeds in excess of 125 MPH" on my motorcycle. The only reason I got caught was because the motor blew up. <---- Kids, do not try this at home.
You need to strap a jet engine onto the top of your car.Originally posted by: TrueBlueLS
Wow... anything above 150 MPH just seems crazy to me. I guess I just need to find a way to get up there. I've seen the following:
105 MPH - 2002 Cavalier LS Sport Coupe (OBD-2 limited)
111 MPH - 1990 Cavalier VL Coupe (would you feel any safer at higher speeds with 185/80R13s?)
122 MPH - 1999 Seabring Convertible (passenger)
