by any chance was it the back of his car that ran into the front of yours?Originally Posted by manker
About 135mph (215kph) in my bosses car (him driving).
About 125mph (200kph) driving, Begram to Carmarthen in 20 mins FTW.
.Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
125 in my '92 saab 900s 2.1L non turbo for about 10 seconds (just to see if the car really could max out the speedometer- it did) in the middle of South Dakota at 1:00 in the morning. The rest of the drive was at a lowly 105. Yes, Montanans know how to shorten distances. Damn I miss reasonable and Prudent. a speed limit that adjusts for road conditions and car capability
I almost forgot, 150+ in a cessna, so close to the ground that we might as well have been on the ground- >10ft

that is an avrage of 75- what is the speed limit there? I would expect to go that fast at least while driving on the interstate. I made it from Corvallis Mt to Bozeman Mt (250 miles) in an hour and a half, missed my mom's mark at 2 hours and 15 minutesOriginally Posted by manker
You need to take into account the UK motorway traffic would have been pretty heavy at that time on a saturday, and also the fact that he had to stop to pay to get into WalesOriginally Posted by Tempestv
150 miles in 2 hours was pretty good going.

ya, I love wide open roads, take off from Corvallis, drive to Bozeman, 250 miles away and never go below 75 exept when you go through some little town (4), and still never never coming to a compleat stop once.Originally Posted by Barbarossa
