    My first/last speeding ticket was for 100mph in a 60mph zone when I was 18.

    I'm now 24 and I've only gotten pulled over for speeding twice since then and gotten a warning both times.

    I drive a commercial delivery truck daily, so I can't risk a bad driving record as it will ultimately affect my job.

        lol i know it was a little long... buit my DX made it and surprised the crap out of my friends with their germans saloons so i was proud of it. the H22 would be good but i think im gonna build of this since it olny has barely 70K!

        plus i was still debating whether to do it because i wasnt sure of cops near by. i didnt wanna lose my license the first day i got it lol

          I agree with OP here.. I take my car up to 120 - 130 regularly but it definitely doesnt feel stable at all. Feels as though the wheel might fall off again (damn ball joints.. damn quebec roads.. damn everything!)

          I'll just stick to burnouts thank you very much.. make a lot of noise without speeding!

              I put my camera in my passenger seat headrest. Well actually i used my iphone lol. I just angled it properly and lowerd the headrest down and it was held in there very solid and it had a great view.

                I hit 100 on the highway coming from West Palm beach coming home on Superbowl Sunday. The car felt great, all newe suspensions parts including a full energy susp poly kit at stock height. Myself, a new charger and a mazda 626 was doing that speed from 20 minutes going in and outr of traffic. It wasnt smart but it sure was fun......i actually fell back in love with my cb after that drive. I completely forgot how good it handled on the highway seeing that i drive city about 98% of the time.

                In my old bimmer I used hit and cruise at 100 all the time with my inline 6, i miss that car

                    But I think, as long as you mod your car properly, and you know how to handle your car, top speed run is super fun Just remember, always be safe!

                        100 mph aint nothing to me, I'll do that not even meaning to on the interstate. I've only been truly in an oh shit moment on a bumpy back road at 120 in the top of 4th, I felt like I was floating and I had no steering. Then again I've done 115 on the interstate and it be smoot as could be, road conditions have a lot to play with it that and the condition of your CB.

                          Thats exactly what it was like. I drove down the road again today and didnt realise how uphill it really is. Its not severe but it definetly is uphill and a rough road not a highway.

                            Thats why I've learned how to control my car at those speeds, but I will say one thing you have to have balls and don't screw up. Basically just hold the steering wheel like it's welded straight. I don't do it anymore, little tamer now. Another thing is if you hit a big enough bump at those speeds and get sideways be prepared to roll.

                              ^yeah, my car rarely sees even 75mph. I've become an old man driver in the recent years.

                              life is good.
