Drag racing bust in VA

Witnesses told police that speeds as high as 150 mph had been observed.
That part cracks me up. 1) its mighty hard to guess the speed of a fast moving car, so, false info there, and 2) the more reliable source, a driver doing the same speed who also would have been busted, but obviously, the witness walked... sounds funny to me.

Yeah, I bet its highly exageratted. If the fox is built and has 3.08s or 3.55s it could probably hit 150 tops, and there are many ricers that can hit that believe it or not. A twin turbo eclipse can, i know that for a fact :D

I'm sure there are plenty of cars that can hit 150. But from the looks of what they had pulled over. I'm thinking the majority can't.
 
Glad to see they're cracking down in that area. I used to live about 45 minutes south of there, and the street racing scene was really bad up there. Almost every week someone was getting killed up there in a race. I can't believe where they were racing. Little Creek is a very busy road with a high population around it.
