Some people want to die the easy way. That is just plain stupid. Actually doing 175 mph on any road is not to bright. I have screwed up before, but at least I know 175mph in the rain is not the smartest thing to do.

The TA had to have some tuning done cause the stock limiter would not let you run that in any gear if it was true.

Right and how would he have known he was going 175 unless he had a corvette speedo.

When I was H/C I ran a red lightning (friend of mine) on 19/23, had the speedo pegged for quite awhile, I would guess I was in the range of 170-180.
