lol ok, so street racing is ok. Just to a certain point above the speed limit. That makes total sense.
A vehicles braking and handling ability obviously has no bearing on that...LMFAO

If you want to be a dumbass which I can tell you are, go ahead and race up to those speeds. When you get caught doing it tell us how much the ticket is or you night in jail. Not worth it to me to see who can go the fastest on the hwy.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Let me get this strait, you thinking racing up to 120mph on public roads won't lead to tickets/jail?

I got a better chance of getting off or just a ticket then doing 170.

you're an idiot if you think slowing down and doing a 20-120 pull is going to get you out of getting a ticket, vs going 50-170. Also you aren't taking into account the braking power, handling ability, or the fact that going from 50 is going to bring WAY less attention to you then going from 20....

Right but going 100 above the speed limit isn't going get as much if not more attention.
