Any check engine codes?

I have an airbag set up, thanks.

Nice vid Ohlord..

I told a little fib, it was 125mph, no roads on the Belt Pkwy in NYC for 137mph. You have to go upstate or out east if you want to maintain that speed. Guys with faster cars will differ.

No check engine codes....just a reality check popped up in my head so I slowed down.

It thought it sounded a little like water running through pipes. Maybe it was the blood rushing through my veins from the adrenaline of flying on the highway only thinking.....damn, I could only emagine what an E55 would do....lol.

I got to say, since the cold weather came about my straight 6 suprised the hell out of me. I did the drive learning reset thingy the other day and when I slammed the throttle from 60 to 120, it was like god kicked my car in the *** and assisted me to a faster death. It was amazing!!!!

Its tough owning a slammed car with 19 and above wheels in NYC. You're always on the lookout for them damn pot holes or knots in the roads.

Advertising on the internet an activity that would definitely land you in jail for a few nights and rid you of a drivers license for the rest of your life doesn't seem prudent.

You don't get a ticket for driving at 130mph. You get arrested and hauled away.

They can't do
anything for posting.
If they wanted to catch me the state trooper in wyoming would not have told me where to go and that state budgets have cut out Air tracking.
Having been in several silver state high speed time rallies I run faster qualified runs so 135+ is tame.
Belt parkway that is another story.
Back in the day Clearview expressway and connecting hway were the roads of choice for 0-165 money runs.Those and Hempstead turnpike east of Hempstead.
Good times Mid 1960's

Go to youtube. Millions of people make these videos in their cars. Eveything from Fords to Ferraris going 220Mph. They cant or wont do anything about it anyways. How do they even know whos car it is when the camera is looking at a speedo that reads 200mph?

That wasn't my point. I didn't say posting it would land you in jail. Getting caught doing it definitely would though. Showing off any illegal activity is just stupid. You're right, millions of people do it but it's still stupid.

You shouldn't post anything that you wouldn't want to be seen by your boss, children, grandchildren, parents, spouse, or the attorney for the parents of the kid you accidentally killed while driving recklessly.

Employers check up on these things. We do a thorough investigation on people before we hire them and you'd be surprised how many people didn't get jobs at my company because of stuff they had on the Internet. That includes facebook pictures, boards, youtube, personal web pages. I get the reports from our investigations department and it's shocking. I've had to pass on people that I thought were outstanding because of stupidity in their web posts

That was a while ago. These days you're lucky if you can get up to 15 mph on the Clearview Expressway. Traffic is rediculous
