wow thats fast!! wat color was that beast?
white TT, with red leather, yum!! we got of our dockyard I guess he also ons his own business at the same area, he was behind me most of the time, since there was a lot of traffic, then i took a u turn on a straight piece of road (empty), and slammed the accelerator, he turned (more like drifting :? ) and passed me, by the time he passed me i was at 100, anyways there was a roundbout coming up so I had to get on the brakes real hard, its an SUV after all, they still have limited turning grip....I only did this so that i could hear the TT sc :? am past me, which it did...

ps. once on my way back home from abu dhabi, i was in a 2003 GXR Land Cruser i hit the rev limiter at 190, scariest feeling ever, thought that the engine blew up or something.

I would never change lanes and do aggressive driving but only sometimes this sort of silly races just to stretch the legs of the engine a bit, since I drive quite slow on the roads and stick to the speed limits.

If I see an empty stretch of roads with no radar then I speed up for some time and resume normal cruising, its good to exercise the engines as long as you dont do it all the time.

sadly, I'm a careful driver after getting my license mainly because I drive my friends' cars......

I hate bikers, I almost didn't see one coming today.......

my highest speed record is:

nissan cefiro 2.0 = 175km/h savar road
range rover 04= 155km/h uttara road. i got scared to go more higher because of the traffic . btw, drove at 9pm and a police with a lancer started chasing me when i was driving at only 100km/h. when i hit the gas pedal the police just dissappeared. it was really cool to see the lancer falling behind!!

toyota premio 04: 160km/h ctg-dhaka road.

nissan altima 3.5= 225km/h in canada

175 kph in my previous 1990 integra (first time above 160 along with my friend in his CIVIC)... EAGLE F1s rule... although its entirely different in rain.

165 kph Allion ... scary as hell on a VERY empty airport road...VERY EMPTY :P

160 kph 2002 Camry Touring :P not much for the camry though.
