Post em if you got them. :lol: For sake of argument the speed is by GPS not the speedo. It was taken in an OHV area, so perfectly legal and I had a co-driver snap the shot. Not looking for arguments just others sweet top speed photos :)

Why the hell would you do that on a public road with oncoming traffic?

Just so you guys know, if your going 100 mph, it takes about 280 feet to stop. Add in reaction/recognition time, and the distance to stop is about 500 feet.

**edit:

Not so sure about the number I used for the 100-0 distance. Just read that a ferrari 430 255 feet to stop from 100 and it's one of the few cars that can stop in <100' from 60.

But you get the idea, it takes a long fucking time to stop from 100.
