Paging Roo, you have a record to break...

Reventon bitches

Or the Murcielago, if they can get the engine back in before Roo shows up.

Don't forget to wear your seatbelt.

I'm 201 cm (can't bother to convert... 6'8'' ?) and fit ok in a 911.

6'8" is unusually tall. You should hang with squatch.

Pffft. The Veyron is sooo 2003.

Meh, sensationalist leeches. I know a 20 year old kid who lost his R1 to the CHP for getting caught @ redline in 6th on the 280 between SF and San Jose. He didn't know exactly how fast that was but it's over 170.

I was in court a couple months ago for doing 101 in a 65 on the grapevine. Driving over 100mph is a different vehicle code than most speeding tickets and there were two of us that got called up in front of the judge for the same violation. The other guy looked like he was maybe 22 and nervous as hell, he got nailed at 117 (grapevine, ca - middle of nowhere near Bakersfield). He pleaded out on the spot and took two points. I fought it, pleaded with the cop at the last minute and then, at the very last minute at the end of the day, talked the judge into driving school - no points.

170 isn't that fast, it just makes a good sensationalist story.. It is funny that he was told no and he did it anyway though and now he's all over the news for getting popped on the cam.

To whoever said the 911s don't fit, I'm sure the dealership could accommodate you - that price tag comes with a certain level of "customer satisfaction." I drove a Cayman S recently and it was snug fit (I'm 6'2") but gawd damm that car sounded good - WHOOOOOOSH!!

...More dickwaving.

Real bike dickwaving involves degrees of inclination, not mph.

If you want to drive fast ... and I mean 120+ fast and (almost) never get caught, then take a drive along the "blue route" from outside Philadelphia to Allentown. Guardrails on both sides of the road + no shoulder + maybe 5 spots a cop can hide but you will see him a mile in advance = fun.

**Shorey** · 09-25-2007, 12:38 PM

Dear Roo

If you ever get a test day in one of these....

PLEASE can I come along?

Thank you.

Actually, it involves both.

mostly just typing, a bit like driving real fast in a straight line on a freeway involves pushing down the accelerator.

Im 5'11" 195 lbs and the porsche boxter I took out fit me like a glove. And the ladies were drooling on their windows looking at me!! I understood very quickly how a car can get you laid

Furthering my point that some guy doing 170 in someone else's 911 isn't exactly news worthy.

It's news worthy in the UK. Anyone gets shot or stabbed here, it's in the news. If a faggot gets his ass turned into a windsock and dumped in the pool of a second rate game show host, it's in the news. If one cow gets sick through a midgy bite, it's in the news.

170mph in a car, on UK roads..... that's the fun story bit at the end of the news and cheers us after murders, faggots and dead cattle.

You're only 6'6".

Shorty

Shit, I've been downsized.

Or drive pretty much anywhere in the western US.

Hahah I'm not sure when the last time you were on 476 but between 95 and Conshie it doesn't move I have been on there at 3am and its bumper to bumper. Also above the interchange they sit on the other side and clock clock clock, my uncle lives near lansdale and gets pulled over alot. PA turnpike is a big money maker.
