blow a tire at 150+ mph and you're going to need some luck.

Yea,but some pour soul will have to be there to pick up his body parts that are strewn all over and somebody else will have to go notify his family that he is dead.

He does'nt get it.. Please be careful!!!
I race cars and at those speeds anything can happen..
If something or someone crosses you path and you flinch ...Game over!!!

Just enjoy your car....without harming you or someone else.

I agree, let this one go. This guy obviously doesn't get it. I'm just glad to say that I live nowhere even remotely close to Thomasville, AL.

Hard to convince someone to use common sense if they don't have any. There is no 'being careful' at 150 you're pretty much at the mercy of those laws of physics that FBOD speaks of. Besides there is not a public road anywhere in this country that is engineered or built for vehicles to travel at those speeds no matter who paved them.

From reading his other posts he's 16 years old... There's no possible way he has gone through the training necessary to warrant him to confidently operate the car at those speeds... Not to mention he's barely even physically developed enough, certainly not mentally. I'm not trying to insult you, but you sound like an impending statistic...

On the other had we were all sixteen, and being 22 I'm not that far from it... However I suppose my testosterone levels have begun balancing out... Even when I was 18 running around in an Evo I wasn't hitting 150MPH let alone trying to bypass governors... Unless it was on an ATV or GolfCart ofcourse

You have a very powerful machine at your command... you need to respect it.

Let me give one more illustration.

At 150 miles an hour, if a large bird flies out in front of you, it's very likely it's going to come THRU -- yes, THRU the windshield AT you.

Try stopping from 150mph blind.

I am not trying to insult anyone -and I'm not trying to belittle anybody.

What I AM trying to do is SAVE YOUR LIFE and those of innocent people (and animals)

Now - if that makes me an incredible Boor - then so be it.

A bird at 55 on a bike hurts like hell with out the windshield of a car. I am glad people here care enough to not just yell at dumb ideas.

There was a video once where a RABBIT came out on to a racetrack during a race, the cars weren't going anywhere 150 and the front end of that car Disintigrated when the car hit it!

Wish i had that for you to see, deer, dog, whatever, at that speed you can't react Fast enough to do shit!!!

Who here knows how long it takes our cars to go from 150 to 0, even with Brembo brakes, if they don't instantly glaze over?
