Just flash your highbeams a few times. It works almost every time. It might seem like you're being a dick, but in reality they are the ones that are retarded and forcing you to "educate" them.

It doesn't work. As a matter of fact, these fuckers will do the opposite and brake check you

I have driven on that stretch of roadway for 15 years of my life. I have done many top speed runs in my cars along that same exact stretch.

He was on the gas for way too long, too many things could of happened in that time. Running it to 160 and slowing down would only be 20 seconds. He is on the throttle for 2 friggen minutes. I would shit my pants.

No sense in bitching. It is not like you are going to change anything. If something happens.. it happens I mean what can do you. As for left lane cruisers. Well thats just another thing wrong with NA's driving laws. As for the autobahn, next time you guys should do european delivery. I was sitting around 270km/h for some time. Very normal. But people can drive there.

I hope this isn't true.

Some good Compacts like the Civic are extremely stable up to more than a 100, if you delete the noise, i would rate it to be nearly as good as an E90, very solid.

I just did an ED in Sept. with my ZiS.., I can confirm that the Germans can drive. It's quite liberating knowing that lane discipline will be observed not to mention the satisfaction in passing a cop @ 140mph. Now the Italians on the other hand.., well that's a different story.

This is the "run" for those so inclined....

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour...,0.392761&z=11



it mostly concrete with some expansion joints, hence the jumping camera. he is going east to west.... much better then west to east, although the idea is go east bound check for LEO's and id parked cars so they dont scare you, turn around at the end and come back west...

Literally THOUSANDS of roll-off and standing start exhibitions of speed have been done on this paticular road.

State police were caught once "closing" the road for there buddies in a local corvette club...

Its a hell-of-a run ..... dont ask me how i know


As for going 200 on this road...... welll honestly its just not smooth....

130 to 150 on the other hand is very doable...

not judging anyone, to each there own... no body held a gun to there head.

Wrong. Are you talking about the turnpike? Because I-95 forget about it. Sure there's nice straight roads here in Florida , but I bet you anything , every couple of miles there will be a FHP waiting for some jackass to fly by. Not to mention people can't drive here.

And second a Veyron? Let's use common sense , there's no safe place to unleash a veryron anywhere in the US your talking about 250+ mph. On public roads your just asking to get killed , or arested.

Up to 150 mph on some of the roads is very doable. Anything more and you're definitely asking for trouble.
