      I've gone 140ish in a Volvo wagon and 167 in my FC Rx7. If I do the cool car thing in the future, I'd like to take it to a standing mile event, but never on the street.

        I've gone 154 (according to the HUD) in my old vette.

        I really want to do a standing mile or the BBORR. But I need to give my car some more go fast before messing with that.

            I've gone 145 in my old gt on 75 and 158-9 in a gt500 on the tollway, worst ticket I have gotten was for 84 in a 60 on 635.

              Yeesh some of you guys are crazy. I did 137 in my old Integra GS-R and never wanted to go that fast again. Cars get weird at high speeds, very cushy and floaty.

              And I will go spot on speed limit on that section of 360, they will never get a ticket from me as it's just a blantant speed trap there. Has been for like 5 years.

                Got tagged doing 160ish in my blown Mark VIII. He had me, radar went nuts but he was going the other way and didnt even try.

                As luck would have it he did tag me two weeks latter for doing 57 in a 55 on that same road. I got a ticket for that, ticket for the license plate frame partially blocking the top of "TEXAS" (the top 5%), ticket for tint (was 34%) and a ticket for not updating my license even though I had been at the new place for two weeks.

                I took pictures and all getting ready to battle. Went to court and he didnt show. Judge threw them all out and said the officer requested I slow down. I pointed out it was 2 MPH over. He said thats not the time he was referring too.

                Damn small ass towns.

                        That's pretty funny. Can't hate the cop for that one. Bet you learned your lesson.

                          You can be arrested for speeding or open container if you refuse to sign the ticket/promise to appear.
