video of my turbo S cab hitting 181 mph!

Spot on Stevo. That was a good time indeed! Best of all, IT WAS LEGAL!
We've all done it on public roads - hell, I hit 187 taking the A1 from Paris to Calais running late for a train, without any other cars in sight. That wasn't smart I know, but I was endangering myself only and maybe the odd freak deer that might have popped out of nowhere. But comeon dude, any one of those cars you were passing left and right could have pulled into the correct lane to get out of the way and it would have been a catastrophe.
Almost every 60-130 pull you see on here are done on clear roads - common sense.
Stories are fun, but posting a video of dumb driving isn't cool.

Almost every 60-130 pull you see on here are done on clear roads. I think partly due to the high entry price, most people who buy these cars inherently have good common sense. Maybe that's changing, I don't know.

Fast... don't want to sound like we are giving you a hard time man! (well we kind of are) It's just the over/under-taking with me... remember the speed you are traveling someone can look in the mirror one second and you are there the next... and if undertaking most don't look in there mirrors when pulling back in to the lane... feel free to speed until your heart is content but do it in a clear road when you aren't involving others

fastlane... i think we all have done some not soo safe driving at some point. But i think if you want to do those speeds you should look for a more confined area ... it would be instant death if anything went wrong. I think most people are just commenting for your safety and others...not to put you down. I know i have done some not so safe driving myself...its very hard to restrain yourself in such a fast car.
I would look for some private roads or consider taking your car to the track if you havent already (assuming you can find one that lets verts on)

I think its a good idea to pull this down.
It seems a good chunk of people on here are hypocritical.
I hope none of you talk on cel phones well you drive ither, that could be danger. Keep that to you home or office where it is safe.

I don't know if this is the said video, but if you don't like fast, dangerous, evil, filling with adrenaline, risky, threatening to others, and disturbing videos just don't click...

Enough is enough. Fastlane has been a good contributor here and we all get the message. None of us are priests. If we were we woudn't be driving modded 500+ HP cars on the street (and dream of even more) to begin with.

last but not least. Just a little bit of 'weaving' in damp roads

So, kick back and relax and watch the least dangerous in the following [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdt3-PZtUxk&feature=related[/media]
