Now see that’s terrifying to me.

It wasn't as bad as it sounds . On a smooth stretch of freshly groomed trail it was easy. Pretty easy on a lake too. My fastest pic was 120 mph. Had the camera all ready in my lap, pin the throttle to the bars then grab camera and snap a few pics. Easy .

Here’s  me racing in Mexico 14 challenger. I changed my tire setup and tuner wasn’t around to change the shift points so I had to use the paddles for gear change . I stopped on the second run at 175mph first run was 155. After 6l80 was rebuilt new circle d 4000 stall with the 3.91 gears it was very nasty car .

My daddy always said if you were going too slow, the miles wouldn't roll over straight and they'd be misaligned and then you’d have to stare at a crooked odometer until it rolls over again. 

 

Well, man’s never steered me wrong before!

Same exact truck, same personality ?

One of my favorite pastimes late at night or on an otherwise empty road is putting my blinker on just as that pair of headlights rapidly approaching in the rear view gets almost to me, just to see the reaction; if I can help social Darwinism in the process, so be it.

Chevy Shakes at 112MPH? 

 

Im at 120k miles 2014 5.3

 

I only seem to shake around 60-85.  Which is obviously most inconvenient.

...so you put your blinker on at the last second in hopes someone that is speeding will veer off the road and possibly be killed eh. So some young man with a wife and kids at home may lose their father because at that moment they did not follow the rules that you do? Its one thing to nag at someone you think a hooligan. ...something completely different to premeditate an action intended to cause great bodily harm. This view you have is something you feel good enough about to tell the rest of the world? What does that say about you ...as a person? You should go wash your hands and think about it.

That’s extremely dangerous and premeditated which will no doubt be the cause of your demise, sooner or later, sooner if you do that in Texas. I always move out of the way and let erratic drivers pass me up but that’s a death wish by many and if you were the cause of an accident you’d 100% be financially liable along with criminal charges that you’ll not only find yourself broke being dragged through court but high chances once you’re convicted you’ll lose everything.

Actually, you're both wrong.  It's not the same "rules I follow" but V&T code.  If one is traveling at such an extreme rate of speed with a family in the car, they are a complete a$$hole and deserve to either rot in jail or rot in the ground.  A properly signalled lane change is legal in every state, and not a cop or jury would arrest or indict any single person who attempts a legal lane change and get's rear-ended by an excessively speeding vehicle.  If that excessive speeder veers into a tree scattering themselves throughout the woods, we're all the safer for it.  If that person were to survive, the mountain of infractions and civil suits they'd be liable for would ensure that the person being rear-ended would receive quite a bit of money.  V&T code for every single state holds that the vehicle being overtaken has the right of way over the vehicle doing the overtaking.  Sooo, the excessive speeder is the cause of the accident.  The world doesn't look kind upon speeders, with speeds in excess of 30 mph over the speed limit making the immediate jump to criminal charges, arrest, and loss of license.

 

Last weekend, actually, at 1 am I made a safe, proper lane change that just so happened to be in front of a Hellcat doing over 150, who had to lock up his tires... I enjoyed the obscene gesture as he roared past, as I was able to make a report for excessive speed, erratic driving, and road rage.  I made sure to honk 10 miles down the road when I saw him pulled over by 3 Troopers getting a mouth full of pavement.  I sleep fine knowing he never got to force that young family off the road.  I've seen enough innocent people scattered down the road because of idiot drivers to care at all about said idiot drivers.

No, that’s not the case by law. Your supposed to match the speed of the approaching driver in the left lane when their passing. If not wait for them to pass. Otherwise the officer will write him a ticket for speeding and you a ticket for obstructing the right of way. Matching left lane speed is a law they’re now enforcing to cut down on road rage.

I will gladly pull out of my subdivision onto the street with curves from both directions and posted speed signs of 30mph and speed humps too for those A-Holes going 60mph....Sorry, guess I have a problem too?

Amen, if natural selection takes its course who are we to stand in the way!

 

That is AWESOME! These men acting as children with 5000# weapons recklessly flying down the road need to be stopped, I hope he lost his driving PRIVILEGES for LIFE..  God help one of these ASSHATS if they were ever to hit me speeding like that I would hire the best lawyer I could find and sue them into oblivion to make sure they lost everything they have now and most of what they'd earn in the future.... 

 

Traveling at high rates of speed is something to be done on closed courses only not public roads but, some people are unable to grow up and understand the laws of physics...

Making a lot of assumptions based off of a single picture and the comments of those posting on the internet now aren’t we?

You all can spin that self righteous crap about stopping the evil speeders all you want. But if its your lucky lottery day a few different bad things could possibly happen to you. The speeding car does hit you and yes while you may prevail in court you're a quadriplegic for life sucking oatmeal thru a straw and having a nurse wipe up your potty then wash your hands with the same cloth. Or the next morning you could be found off the road in your car with a hole in you and no witnesses. Or your victims widow sues your ass off for intentionally causing the accident and the dead guys dash-cam footage seals the deal.

 

Play all the semantic word games you like ...If you assign yourself judge and jury and intentionally run someone off the road you are every bit as wrong and worse than they are for just being stupid and speeding. To espouse that you are on moral high ground with your justifiable manslaughter defense makes you really a sick human being. Karma also has a sick sense of humor, when it comes round i hope you're still laughing.
