140 mph in a 1970 Camaro. Could have been ugly as a car pulled off the shoulder in front of me and when I hit the brakes...brake fade!

The car in front of me saw that I was coming way too fast and moved back onto the shoulder.

I was 17 or 18 at the time. I'm 50 now and would never do that again. When you get old, you seem to get some sort of appreciation for life. Or realize you're mortal. The chance of something going wrong, no matter how good a driver you are, or think you are, is just too probable.
