160mph is no big deal either. Most of the old GP LS1 GTG guys saw 145-150mph on 360 between I-20 and Six Flags Drive. And 150-175 on I-20 from Matlock to Carrier Pkwy.

1 And 150-175 on I-20 from Matlock to Carrier Pkwy.

Thats a good stretch. I remember riding in my friends MR-2 turbo, then hitting the 20 to 360 curve at about 100.

When the freakin back wheel falls off immediately after it damned sure is!

Would have been nothing but pieces and parts and bloody red pulp left at that speed...

Just head out west a little there's a lot of roads around the Stanton, Midland, Big Lake area that are straight and flat for long stretches.

Just watch out for Oil field traffic.

True story!

I saw what a convertible Mustang GT would do when it hit the Erath bridge on US 287 (MLK) in 1994. All 4 died instantly and the driver's head exploded like a zit on the pillar.

If you are ever going from Midland to Lubbock take 179 from Lamesa to Wolfforth instead of the normal highway, it is a fun road just watch our for the couple stop signs and turns in it. First time I took it was at night I launched my mustang over a crossroad with a good crown because I didn't see the stop sign. 8 years of taking that road at well over 100 and I have yet to see a cop.

PHOENIX (Reuters) - Arizona police are seeing red over the driver of a Bugatti Veyron luxury car who seems to have given himself the green light to drive over 215 miles per hour on a public freeway.

A roughly three-minute video that surfaced this week purports to show the mystery motorist reaching those speeds during seven adrenaline-charged runs in 2009.

Bart Graves, an Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman, said on Friday the driver would be thrown in jail if caught trying to repeat the same "incredibly stupid stunt."

But although the video shows the driver having been pulled over in Arizona at one point, it was not clear if the high speeds were reached in that state or in Mexico. Text at the end of the video states it was "shot south of the border."

A video of the sleek Bugatti Veyron speeding on a freeway has generated more than a million views since it was posted on video sharing site YouTube on Monday. The European luxury car model costs at least $1.5 million.

Text for the video describes the Bugatti as making seven runs, clocking speeds of 215 mph to 225 mph. Cameras placed at ground-level capture the event, and the frame occasionally shakes as the car goes by in a blur.

"No birds, reptiles or mammals were harmed," the video text said. "Everyone involved got the 215 mph ride of a lifetime."

The unidentified driver could be seen in a white racing jumpsuit with the side of his face shown. Authorities believe the video, although it just recently went viral, was captured in winter 2009 as its YouTube entry states.

"We have these clowns do this from time to time," Graves said. "They don't care about what could happen. They just want to toot their own horn."

The end of the video shows the driver at the side of the road, talking to an Arizona Highway Patrol officer. Text posted alongside the video states that the driver was not cited because at the time he was only going 80 mph. Graves confirmed those details in the stop of the unidentified motorist.

Graves said extreme speeding has no place on the roadways.

"If he's rich enough to own a car like this, he's rich enough to rent a racetrack in Tucson or Phoenix," Graves said. "The fact is, this is a criminal act."

He said a reckless driving conviction could result in jail time and the loss of the offender's driver's license.

If you've got enough cash to buy a veyron, you've got enough cash to bring Johnny Cochran back from the dead so he can represent you.
