Anyone live in South Florida? I do 140 in my eclipse for a good minute on Sawgrass Expressway, 3 lanes, no turns, and cops can't hide cause thier cars would get stuck in the mud on the sides. What's the limit on the TSX?

Apparently not very smart.

Where there are cameras, there is often fixed radar.

Can anyone be sure that there is not a stalled car in front of them; especially at night?

110 is my top speed on this car. I always get freaked out about going faster than 95 because of traffic. There's no good place in San Diego to go fast.

I would only do that on a clear, straight, and recently paved freeway, and on a sunny day. I did it only twice, and it's amazing how smooth it is, and the car felt glued to the road even as I changed lanes.

I went 90-110 MPH on a 2.5 hour trip from Champaign IL to Cincinnati OH. This was back when my speedometer was broken, I was judging speed by tac (3k = 70 MPH, 3.5k = 80 MPH.. etc) but everyone was passing me so I took it up to 4k-4.5k Pretty exciting stuff, but I didn't realize I was actually moving that fast... Good thing no cops spotted me!!!
