Am I the 1st to hit this?...160M.P.H.....

yu · 12-05-2005, 11:39 AM

Yeah, I saw that as well. Was wondering why your cruise control was on 160.

bimmerwannerbie · 12-05-2005, 11:47 AM

LOL, not a bad effort though!

I'd probably be scared shitless on US freeways at 160, fastest I've gone was 125 and it felt stable but still scary.

no but really i did 160 for a little bit but im guessing getting worried with camera i eased off the throttle. i was pretty fcukin nervous i might add. honestly guys...this car...does not feel good on american highways at 160...maybe it was because im on i95 in miami at around 2am...but for anyone who knows the highway there are alot of overpasses and bridge spacers...those dont feel to reasurring at these speeds.

and do you know those overpasses for every exit? it feels like they come every 5-10 seconds...but the rush...is intense, i dont even have a radar detector because honestly if they see u at this speed. u either keep going or you are going to jail...

Yo whats up man yea i95 is a real shitty highway you should go to the meets some times

AW330i · 12-05-2005, 05:27 PM

I was just about to bust the guy on the pic and then I got beat to the punch oh well, Its better that the picture is fake then him trying to operate a camera at those speeds lol...

ksfrogman · 12-05-2005, 06:48 PM

Just to put things into perspective, 160 miles per hour is 234.66 feet/second or 78 yards/sec. This means that in the 1+ second it takes you to glance down at your camera and speedo, you have travelled the length of a football field. I hope this was a long stretch of STRAIGHT road.

cannonspike22 · 12-05-2005, 08:05 PM

so HOW do you start a self-check on the odo

hold the reset trip mileage button?

No really, why drive slower if there´s an opportunity to go fast?
