There wasn't any traffic. I did it on an open stretch of highway. It was around 11:45pm.

It was rock solid too...

LOL, yeah, f**k those limters, they're BS, oh well, at least the gentlemen's agreement over there in Germany seems to be coming to an end, we need family cars that can do 200+, it's only a matter of time.

LOL...I'm going to do the Kleeman K4 kit within the next 6 weeks. I'll go bury the needle like i do in my Supra to around 180mph and take a little photo of that too.

I don't have a family...but i like the room to roam.

Mount the camera to the steering wheel. That way, you can have both hands on the wheel and take a clearer picture.

Don't kill yourself.
