Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet :hail2: Nice road through the hill country, perfect weather, no traffic -- speed limit 70mph. Looked down and I was doing 102 mph and it felt like 60 - oops! This car rocks! So smooth! :) Just had to say it as I have had her since January and never had a safe opportunity to just cruise!

Good job :nice: I hereby order you to hit 100 mph on at least one expressway onramp whenever you drive..........

but officer I was just attempting to merge safely into traffic (works for me)

wow, driving must be way different where you are compared to here. Even though we have a 70mph limit on the motorways you'll find lots and lots of people running at 90-100mph - its an every day occurance.

This is the sort of fun raod to run at 100mph, although you tend to on and off the brakes a bit :D

I am sooooo jealous! I would love to cruise the autobahn around 135 :drool: :drool: :drool:


It can get a little hairy at times, especially when a tractor trailer pulls out in front of you doing 55 trying to pass the truck in front of him that's also doing 55. But I can say that after 5 years of living in Gemany and driving pretty much as fast as I want, I'm gonna get into a lot of trouble when I finally do go home to the states.
 
If you think that cruising at 100 mph in a Stang is a rush, try it in an 18 wheeler in the middle of the night out in west Texas (or anywhere else for that matter). Nothin like foot-on-the-floor trailer truckin. Did the stretch of I-10 from I-75 to P'cola in Florida one night in three hours ( that's about a 290 mile stretch of interstate) Used to do Albuquerque to Amarillo in 3 1/2 hrs (285 miles) frequently in the mid 80's. Just be careful not to do this when conditions don't warrant it. There's a time and a place for everything.
