I'd love to know how old those guys are. There's no way anyone over the age of 25 has enough testosterone left to think that they can get away with stuff like that for long.

Supposedly Mesa AZ police have got a hold of this video and are currently looking for this guy, which he shouldn't be too hard to find. He is over 30 yrs. old and evidentally made his money in the gay porn industry. I am on a board with people from that part of the country and they said this video has been playing on the news out there the last few days.

No...

I would do it if I had a shot in that car.

...effing way. Not at night. Not on a public highway. Can you imagine hitting a coyote or a piece of debris or someone swerves at the wrong time? At that speed, at night, may as well have your eyes closes. Nothing you can do anyway.

If I could afford the car, I could afford to rent some track time.

Wow! Hope they don't keep trying to break their record. Someone is likely to get hurt sooner or later. Was that a radar detector (not that it could have picked up anything at that speed) or the rear view mirror in the windshield?

Had my vette up to 157 on the long straight stretch of Piney Point Rd. Had to slow down for a corner. The convertable top sounded like a flag in a hurricane.. :lol: Was during the day. Funny thing is, to get speed, you have to use 5th gear, not 6th.

one time I got my old '95 Ford Probe GT up to 135... that was scary... I was racing a BMW M3 on 79, Pittsburgh to Morgantown in 40 minutes (normally 1.5 hr)

My Probe GT was running 15.8 in the 1/4 mile with some mods (exhaust and spacers) also it was the original clutch and didn't grab in 3rd gear. That was also before I ported and polished the heads, customer ram air intake, full exhaust with out a Cat. With my set-up I had, other people where running low 14s in the 1/4s.
