Even though this is in 'The Lounge', remember the part in the thread title about 'in your car' (and on a closed course, not the street).

Pfft I blew the welds off my intake manifold driving so fast in the blazer. lol...






But to stay on topic, I've gone up to 100 mph in the blazer while driving through Ohio on my way in Indy. Now I only average 65-70 mph due to traffic where I live. Btw speeding is dumb, only good that comes from it is a speeding ticket and points on your license. lol

I wouldn't consider a speeding ticket a good thing lol. What about the rush?

i would consider a speeding ticket a good thing IF you look at all of the consquences that could be had from excessive speed (on a closed course)

Come on over! We share this one with the state police now who use it for practicing PIT maneuvers, etc. We do our EVOQ course on it. There are SCCA events on it during the summer as well.
