mechanical engineering huh, i was thinking about majoring in that but not in this school. chose automotive technology instead, we could do a meet, im thinking about setting up a time for the rained out bowling meet.

Yeah Southern state is fun, but the meadow brook is where I have done my best. In my old 1990 infiniti q45 I hit 140 and it felt great. Damn that road was smooth. It was 4am on a sunday morning. No traffic, yes I risked the cops but it was the section with the median where you could see far ahead.

So far though my favorite road, that I travel everyday is the Jackie rob (interboro for the oldheads)

Its a real test of your ability when you get some open road. How fast are you guys doing the S-turns, my best in my LS is 75.

My favorite is the Cross Island, rarely any cops there, and its a straight away. But the meadowbrook is fun too.

Jackie Rob is a fun drive too, i usually do around 65-75 on it, and get really frustrated when i get stuck behind two cars doing 40.

Man the jackie is fun, My average speed on there I have topped out at 110. But on the S-turns themselves I can keep it at 70-75 and still have control.

One time (at band camp) no jk...I was in my car with one of my friends heading up to Nassau Collesium got there in 25 minutes from exit 61 off the LIE...not proud at all; kind of stupid also but definitely kept the adrenaline pumping. I was going around 110mph weaving cars like Pole Position on the Southern State with STOCK SUSPENSION! Very stupid I know...won't ever do that again...just showing off and being stupid. My friend was gripping the door handle the whole time...ha ha.

Dude, I do that all the time. My car isnt the fastest but in traffic I'm an animal and I'll give anyone a run for their money.

Seriously, I think EVERYONE pushes their car once that SSP opens up (thus all the accidents!)
