Less impressive, considering what they were doing at White Sands. But it was enough for me. ;)

Given that you were, I assume, driving a factory stock rig, I would call that impressive.

When I was in high school, many years ago, I hit 120 in an old dodge in SoCal on an empty desert highway. It was fine until we hit the railroad tracks at over 80 mph. That was a seat-sucking episode for sure.

Almost as bad as when my friend hit the emergancy brake in my VW Thing when we we taking a sweeping right turn at 50. Never shook as bad in my life as when we came back down on all four wheels. A Thing was not the car to roll over.

God, fools and children...
