So what do you want for going that fast? A Medal or a Chest to Pin it on?

I'm not one to brag, but I was in a jet liner once that went faster than all those things! On top of that it went really high and made everything below look teeny tiny! But then I turned 12 and stopped being so impressed with the speed thing. On the upside I still think the teeny tiny ground stuff is cool!

I'd rather just have the "SLOW TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT"

Thanks for asking.

On a more silly note, my tonneau cover blew off at 125 mph. Then a semi hit it. i didn't even pull over. Now I need $350 for a new on. Oh well. I guess speed kills (your tonneau cover).

It's too bad it wasn't one of your front tires that blew off, now that would have been exciting!

That is too bad..... I've already tried it at 80 mph, so I'm almost there. Only 40 more mph to go.

But it didnt' blow. Just delaminated. It got wiggly, but since I was a pretty good driver I didn't do much more than let off the gas and downshift to 4th and let it slow as quickly as possible. Once I got to about 35 or so, I was on the shoulder and stopped just fine. Didn't even nick the rim. Whew.

Yea, we're all great at speeding on the highway until something like this happens:

Just something to think about. It'd be bad enough if you bit it yourself, but what if your smart guy antics caused this for someone else?
