I have no idea what this guy is thinking with traffic around. I take no responsibility for his stupidity.

What a fucking idiot. Dude, you're doing 140+ on a 2-lane country road. Jesus, look at all the opportunities for some unsuspecting victim to pull out onto that road and get creamed by you.

There's gotta be better ways to kill yourself that doesn't involve others.

Stupid yes.

Does it look all that fast to me. No.

I've been well into the 130s. This video doesn't look like it's all that fast. But who knows, I wasn't there.

i didn't think it was 140 either till that shot of the speedo. I guess a vid just doesn't do it justice.

your cl is very nice danny... mine is a 2003 cls6 stock... silver... you are lucky living in tx... i live in canada... i have to put my winter tires on next week... on wheels without hubcaps... i'll have to behave for a couple of month... what's great thougt is for the last two years, I had a 2001 cls... with the parking break pedal but now with the cls6, I have the handbrake, so I'll be able to have fun turning corners on snow with that.

I'd like to be able to have nice weather all year round... although snow and ice kinda puts an extra challenge to driving... I once got to 140 on winter tires... you should hear the sound that makes. These tires are only H rated

Just to let everyone know THIS IS NOT ME IN THE VIDEO. I found this file on my computer that I DL some time ago. I wanted to post it to find out who it is so I can find out what exhaust is on the car. Does anyone know?

So that means at 150 it would be maybe 2 mph off. Still doesn't seem to make sense. If you are going downhill can it effect the speedo
going downhill doesn't have anything to do with it. the wheel still rotates the same amount. what does affect it is simply rim size, tire diameter and other things.

Interesting clip there. I would not go that fast in that area for sure!

As for the exhaust I have no idea...maybe its a gready full cat back??

J.T. I have the HKS so maybe one day if you are trying to decide on what to get you can listen to mine first

Going 140mph+ on a rural road like that is suicidal. When I ran my Max @ that speed, I at least had three near-empty lanes to play with.

I will post a 130mph video shortly, with "my friend" in the car alone. It's on the wide open freeway where there are no access roads or entrance ramps. In fact, you can't even see Northbound traffic on the other side of the woods.

Is there a chip that will remove the governor?

BTW...

What a dumb ass for going that fast while there is oncoming traffic like 2 feet to the left. I've been 147 in my CL-S, but that was in Nevada with no one coming. The 147 was in 4th gear BTW.

I would like that very much. I'll probably go with HKS+Comptech B pipe or Greddy evo catback.

Driving that fast on that type of road with all those side roads is like playing Russian Ru-let with one in the chamber. Not very smart.
