I've seen packs of them doing that shite around Chicago. At night.

Would have laughed if some old biddy changed lanes at an inopportune time.

Not at those speeds. Those people are more dangerous than the dude getting arrested for not speeding and blowing a .1

Only one "exotic" (I guess the Porsche counts too) and it was #45, I would have thought there'd be more Italian cars listed.

Best though was back in maybe 1998, me and a friend were on 75 in Richardson/Plano. Traffic was flowing well. We were doing around 65 or so and he says "you won'tbelieve this shite"... A bike passes us doing probably 80 or so, not all that fast. But on a wheelie. And he just kept it up. We sped up and he rode that damn thing for at least another 3/4 mile. It was bizarre.




I've seen people doing this on I-45 in Houston mid-day.

I was the idiot in the F150. Have the ticket to prove this. Anyways the truck was a 5.0L V8 short bed single cab with a 3.31 rear gear. I had a really hot E85 Tune from a company called OZ Tuning that adjusted the shift points, raised redline, removed speed limiter etc. Aside from that it had Longtube headers, no cats, Intake manifold off a Boss 302 mustang and finally a JLT cold air intake. Can’t believe this has got so much attention lol That ticket only cost me 350 bucks too

Not bad.

I got a ticket for 64 over (119 in a 55) many years ago in WI and that was over $400 as I recall.

Many years ago means in the 90's.

And here I am getting a ticket for going FIVE over in Tulia, TX. The state trooper looked like he was on edge and ready to blow my brains out if I made any sudden moves.

I also have a 13 5.0 with an OZ tune and intake. I'll take your word for it on the 150 part!

I hit 132mph on the highway about 15 years ago in a 2002 Honda Accord with a Vtech V6. It had some work done to it, but not much. It was around 2:30AM with practically no one else on the road.

A salut, sir! When they lit em up did you pull over right away? What was the officer like? At that speed those guys are either super cool or want to shoot you in the face right away. Share with the group!

I was going 90 in an 85 and got passed like I was standing still by a corvette. I’d have loved to know how fast he was going.

Not crazy. It does exist between Seguin and Austin on 130.

The vast majority of exotic owners aren’t using them to go fast. They buy them as a status symbol and to pick up chicks. Which they don’t because nice cars are dick magnetic. Women don’t GAF.

Carson County would be the stupidest stretch of road to do that on I40. It's immediately east of Amarillo. Texas DPS lives there. You can honestly count double digits of the officers and cars. Always someone in the ditch getting the treatment.

This is where the huge drug busts occur.

Texas Data show the fastest ticket issued in 2016 was clocked at 209 mph; the second fastest was 167 mph. Both drivers were cited on U.S. 190 in Coryell County.


Our nations warriors stationed at Fort Hood don't give a damn for your speed limit. Them baws are young and wild.

They have a sign when you leave Fort Hood talking about how many soldiers have been killed in auto accidents. HWY 195 that heads from Fort Hood down towards Georgetown towards Austin used to be called the highway of death.
