Greetings fellow military folk. I'm new to the sight and glad to see a military section in here. I've been in for almost 9 years now. I'm in Heidelberg Germany right now and moving out to Vilseck in May.

How many Germany peeps we got in here?

Well the fastest I've had it so far on the autobahn is 144mph with still plenty of room left in the pedal...just didn't want to take it any faster at the time.

Never had it on a track yet. I'm in the 1st stage of building it up.

We can do 144 here in the states. How about 160 plus?

We had some great weather in Heidelberg this weekend and I finally had it where I didn't have duty on any of the days. Did some good cruising with a couple of buds. I'll post some pics later today!
