I'm with hoss on this one... i do plenty of stupid stuff but 180mph is 263 feet a second, as in almost a football feild every second... things come at you pretty fast at those speeds, even a good driver can make mistakes at that kind of velocity.

If you street race it's just as dangerous at 130, just because you lay off at a lower speed does'nt make you more responsable or intelligent.

Hey Hoss everyone lives there life the way they want. If you dont wanna go 180 then dont go 180. Also you dont know the situation that they where in. It could have been on a low straight stretch of freeway with no other cars. In a built up car 180 on something like that isnt a big deal. You know its haters like you that mess things up. What I cant believe is you went so far to prove someone wrong that you actually investigated there previous posts to try and call them out as being a liar. But ofcourse you know everything there is to know about racing, cars, life, and what happened that night. That is all im going to say on this one, again good job CWA and keep them coming.

Blah Blah Blah..... If you can run 180 on the street against a C6 Z06 then ******' do it. He lived to tell about it for **** sake.

I doubt it was in a residential area so who gives a **** if he wants to tempt fate. How often do you hear about people dying in 180 MPH street races anyway. Usually it's some moron who loses it and hits a spectator during a street race where a bunch of dumbassholes are lined up down the street.

C.W.A - More power to you!

ok, you're right, 180 isn't ****. I am not trying to tell anyone how to live their life. I merely made a point. Ever seen what a car like that looks like after a crash at high speeds. Well it doesn't look like a car. Also, you are damn right I am going to do a lil research before I call someone out, I would hope you would to.

hoss, if you do your research look up what a moded vette can do. 425rwhp is about the same as 05 vipers put down and they can run low 12's high 11's all day. They also are 300 to 400 lbs more than my car, do the math.
