Lax,

Careful.....I'm not a legal beagle but police may be able to use the pictures/video against you.....

I saw something on TV re: fellow driving a Ferrari real fast on video and (they said) he was arrested based on the video.

Anyone know the rules on something like that?

It's very simple to know why you have that smile on your face !

Is it the video of a Japanese guy doing 200+ mph on a highway in Tokyo in his Ferrari F40 or something?
Well.. that's 200+ mph...

Holson,

No, the one I saw was shot on a limited access highway in the Northeast....and he was doing about 150! Apparently was selling the video to fellow speed lovers....until the police got a copy.

No........... it happened in England with the Ferrari.



Anyways, is your steering box pretty tight (not a lot of play).

That seems to be my limiting factor, I don't like the steering that loose when I'm going 85+

Talking Smiling?

105+ mph in a 15+ year old DIESEL.
Why do you think he's smiling?
Lax,Thanx for the pix.They made me take my
'85 CD out to see what it could do.
Here in trooper laden so.fla,I got it to 95
before I got too worried about troopers.
I feel it could've gone more.
Just curious...I noticed some of your other posts
about tranny/low power problems(up hill).Was that
before the high power runs or because of it?
