The "How Fast Did You Drive Today" Thread

[S204STi]

This year is probably going to wipe the S-drives, too.  They already had two seasons on them, this will be their last.  Need to start planning for a new set in the spring of 2013.

I really should not do this, my tires are in such crap condition. But I've got balls, balls, man.     

[S204STi]

Atta boy.

If Jacob were still here he could testify to my effectiveness in that regard.

Good job, Wims.

Were you on a road without speed limits, or were you doing some extreme speeding?

[S204STi]

Sadly, the road we drove on is currently engulfed in flame.  It'll never be the same...

Were you on a road without speed limits, or were you doing some extreme speeding?

That was the Autobahn from M?hldorf to Munich: speed-limit-free all the way (33 km long) and I was pretty much doing 200-210 km/h all the way since I wanted to catch the soccer games! This picture was taken close to Munich and I had a full tank of gas when I left M?hldorf (80 km away). You can see how thirsty the car is when I speed.

I need to drive on the autobahn.

Hit 65 in the Troop. It was quite an accomplishment, since it was slightly uphill.

Ugh, that's terrible.

WTF?  How big was the hill?

You've never driven on it?

Most of them have speed limits though ranging from 120-130 km/h. Over 50% of the German Autobahns have speedlimits. But there are thankfully some Autobahns in my region where one can experience the true meaning of the word FREEDOM OF SPEECH SPEED!

Never been to Deutscheland....

Time to book a vacation!

110 briefly while scouting visibility north east of town for tomorrow's commute.

Noticing that the S.Drives are getting worn more rapidly than I'd care for.  They have, oh...20k on them and getting down to 4/32".  Need tires that are engineered to handle more aggressive driving I guess.

I just got back from Holland and Norway!  I want to make it to Germany in the next few years.

....or you could slow down.....Nah, don't do that man.  Just get better tires...

Eat a sack of dicks, Dave.

I don't know what's gotten into you, man....   You've turned into such a fucking badass.  You're my idol....

[dazzleman]

I find your newly discovered and blossoming rebel streak to be hilarious.  I always knew it was lurking below the surface, waiting for the right opportunity to thrive!

[S204STi]

You can't speed in those countries and the cops there have zero tolerance for speeding, especially in Norway!

I think getting arrested in a foreign country would be pretty cool.  "Zero tolerance" doesn't deter me at all....

Getting arrested here would be pretty boring. You'll be stuffed into the back of a VW Passat station wagon or BMW 3-Series station wagon. 

Now, getting arrested in America is much cooler. Ford Crown Victoria - enough said.

If you come over here, I'm sure a ride in one of those land yachts can be arranged for you.....

I can't wait.

Can you find a police force that still uses the 1981 Ford LTD? I like those!
