140 M.P.H. +......again
I've had mine up to 140 a few times on the highway.I wont hold it there long.I got 3 tickets the first month i had it and I get paranoid,even with 2 radar detectors and a bear finder.
To tell the truth,my azz starts to suck seat leather at that speed on the public highway.I think I have it out of my system now though.I dont feel the need to test her limits every time I drive it now.I'm pretty content just spanking everyones azz at redlights whenever they show attitude.

. Was it Nathan that had the "FLY-BY" video a year or so ago? Did a search, but no luck
Tape
at the last SilverState the nav and me made a vcr tape of the event pretty boring but every once in a while you can hear him yell out the speeds I think one or two of them are at 160mph.
Depending on how the truck handles now with the few aero mods that are done I might try for the magic 170 but if I get caught or they read this[SilverState people] I won't get my speed and will be DQed

PS I am not crazy I do have a FULL Cage 2"dom,on board fire system and a 3 layer NOMEX suit and gloves.I value my life and the sport to much to give it a black mark!!

Yeah Spiro I figured that you would like that one!!
So are still selling your L? I bet once your L is gone you will miss it and want it back. From what JL tells me you and him have been racing for years so I doubt that just selling your L will get the racing out of your blood!

Barstow event
Stan,
What are the dates for the Barstow event? I'd like to put it on my calender. BTW, I know of a company that hopes to be involved in that event (see screen name for hint).
