lol...honestly


what good can come of going 160?

possible pros:

  • you can say you drove your car 160

possible cons:

  • you could crash and die
  • you could kill someone else
  • you could get pulled over...
  • arrested...
  • loose your license
  • you could harm your car in many ways

i think the cons out way the pros


Cant you do all of those at the speed limit as well?


The guy asked a question. Why cant it be answered?



Ahhh, Volvospeed! :monkey:

Yea, they can happen at or under the speed limit, but I think his point was that they're more likely to happen at 160. Thanks for being anti-flamer btw. +1

If you don't want to get yelled at don't act all tough and call us pussies or do 160 on a 60 mph highway. What would even happen if a cop caught you???

Yea, I'm probably not actually going to go 160. I just want to say that I can. Also, if I was going 160 and a cop was stationary, he's probably not going to catch me.

Please try and report back, I am very curious if the handbrake thing can be confirmed. Might be a redeeming quality.

No, maybe you don't understand because of your stupidity or relentlessly unwilling nature to listen to anything any of the more educated members of the board have to say, but YOU WILL NOT go 160 mph in your slow ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD N/A S80. Absolutely, positively, will not. I doubt you'd make it over 130 with quite a few miles of highway. Most of the members on this board would have a difficult time hitting 140-150 in their turbo cars that they have actually modified and prepared for high speeds, including brakes, tires, and suspension. Hopefully you'll get this stupid idea of going 160 out of your head soon, before you hurt yourself or someone else.

cops tend to have these cool new hightech thingies (i believe they're called Ray-D-Os) , they're supposed give those nasty coppers the unique power of transferring their thoughts and ideas to other coppers further down the road , those bastards and their mad scientist that come up with such crazy doomsday devices ...
