No turbos, no governor >:-) been up to 150, but could prolly go higher. I'm not a big top speed guy, though. I like the twisties. I went through a few phases of speeding in my life: * Phase 1 - dumb and stupid. This was when I was too poor to have anything that was safe over 50 and too stupid to not get caught. Score: 3 totaled cars, revoked license. * Phase 2 - Ok, I've got my license back, I'm going to drive the limit *always* in the most boring cars I can find. Score: Honda and Ford 2, cops 0 * Phase 3 - Making good time is important and so is having fun. But not too much fun. Score: Cops 4 - license would've been revoked had I not been versed in traffic court procedures. I'm getting smarter in court but dumber on the road. * Phase 4 - Ok, speeding is fun, but it must be done smart. Use full electronic detection and counter-measures plus a solid avoidance methodology. Score: ticket free for 3 years! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:197428 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
