down at the speedo and see 120+ mph. These SC's aren't even working at 120mph!
It's just to easy and really doesn't feel that fast.
If you stay within 10 MPH or so of posted limits, you shouldn't have problems....State Troopers don't usually hand out tickets for less than that. You can't expect to average 85-95 though, without getting zapped one way or another.

Thumbs down

If you're exceeding the posted limit by 20MPH+, you deserve a ticket. If you're doing 100+, you deserve to be arrested, have your license revoked, and be made fun of.

You don't drive a Lex, do you?

100 mph is dragging in a Lex.

When I go 65 it feels like I'm parking.
