Dude couldn’t give it just that one more little push to 170 mph?

A friend lost his leg at the hip while sitting at a stop light on his motorcycle. His life was destroyed.

A friend of mine (when I was young) let me drive his ‘72 trans am, 455 hd...

Needless to say, he never let me drive one of his cars again..

I guess Rte 10 is OK, but honestly not long or calm enough for many people to go >100 on a Friday afternoon?
I still can’t believe it wasn’t 97.
Fastest I ever drove was 150 mph on the autobahn in Germany. Was passing cars that were doing 80 like they were standing still.
From your screen name, I’m assuming in the air?
Prerry good Trans-sonic. is that your speed over land with a good tailwind at high altitude? Or was that KIAS? 😉
I’ve broken 750 mph (over the ground) in a 767, but we were at 39,000 feet with a ~200 mph tailwind. (NY to UK).

How much did the gas cost?
