140 doesn't quite give you enough time to slow down, so that's excessive.

You won't see me doing that...plus RL is limited to 13x...

Also, if you follow too close and don't slow down fast enough from a laser hit...you will have the ticket.

So if you're cool with the above, you are welcome to observe the upcoming quad exhausts :-)

well ill be going with the flow of the group.... paying attention to brake lights & what not & i will not be ding 140.... thats not a ticket, thats a lock up out there in CT

I personally prefer not to cross the 100 line, the gas consumption drops off rather steep.

^ I did 130 once when i 'just' got my car...As this is being my first car I was very excited at the time so I just wanted to set a record. I made sure there were no cars around and as soon as i reached 130 i dropped backed down.

I dont think they are allowed to chase you JUST for speeding if you are going that fast...but yea, that's bad.

No...I don't hint at people doing over 100. I understand enjoying your car, but that much over 100 is not meant for every day driving.

Like if you have 5 people in your car, full trunk and racing some loser in a GTI...then hitting 140 without realizing it is not so bad.

AS LONG AS YOU SLOW DOWN WHEN YOU NOTICE!

Ever use GPS to predict how fast you can go on a certain stretch of winding road?

anyone know if CT has room to do some 0-70 runs, maybe?

People on the 4G TL forum are wondering how the RL stacks up against TLs

salu, the only cars I remember was Blazing (homer sticking out roof), Luthor (cause of the license plate, and cause I didn't know where to go and had to sit on his tail) and rockafella cause I got pretty close to rear ending him when Blazing slammed the brakes.

Meet size? I don't think anything will get to the size of the New York meet...but it should be more fun regardless.

Lots of cars in the woods...what the hell else to do other than socialize...no incentive for people to leave cause there is nowhere to go to.

Let's see a photo of your car, I may remember it.

Yeah, I have driven fast before, and I've also grown up a lot since I was 16-19. My point was to not bash on ppl who drive fast or anything, but I'd like make the point that far too often ppl think its something to brag about or what have you. If you want to speed, please make sure there is no traffic around you. Including the random car that happens to be in the right lane of the highway when you go flying by at 120 to the left of them. It only takes one small thing to go wrong, and then you're not only talking about your own life, but someone elses as well.

I've just seen too much awful sh*t happen.



wow, sorry about the lecture. wasn't even my intentions. i iz in serious mood? damnz.

Um yea so you guys pw'd the hell outta this thread with your street racing BS. I thought I told you all that I was the only one who was allowed to pw it up in here?? No? Oh well, too late now....

So I have read all the posts above and I have 2 things to say

1) Street racing is NOT okay

2) This meet will NOT be as big as the NY meet, if it is we are screwed because there will not be enough room for everyone. I am actually going to go to the park sometime on Sunday to count the spots....
