Talking 120 and fun curve road in NYC?

Just want to see where do you guys THINK you can go more than 120 in NYC and fun curve road (FCR) to drive.

Please answer in the following format like mine:

120===(Highway) from point A to point B
FCR===(Highway) from point A to point B


120===(87 North) Bronx from GWB up north to Yonkers or further up
FCR===(FDR South) From Harlem to Brooklyn Bridge

Good luck and be safe but take it to the track if you are going to race. Posting things like locations on a street race is just not smart.

Some of the worst potholes on the FDR especially on that side around 42nd Street and worst drivers. Plus many cops around there I seen many people getting pulled over. Keep it safe.

lol, no one tell you to RACE. Dont race on the above area. Just "THINK" as per the my first post, use your imagination of open road with COPS. Please read more carefully.

All city limits are 50mph and alots hide out. I dont drive faster than 60 hopefully not getting a ticket for driving at 60 especially at this economic, money is very important.

FDR south passes by United Nation and always cops are there gathering, but the SUDDEN turns is funniest of all in the City IMO even driving 50. True, lots of potholes....

Jeez, some of you guys are just so boring. The dude is asking for places to hit 120 and not for you to be his mother. He makes his own decisions , no one is telling him to hit those speeds.

The cops use a few unmarked chargers a white/grey and black one in the following brooklyn area

Belt Pkwy
Going towards Queens
Belt Pkwy exit 5 till exit 8 long bridge road at night no potholes perfect road, chances of cops seeing you very slim as long as you slow down before exit 8, the oinkers like to hide on the service roads.

Going towards Manhattan

Between Exit 2 and Exit 1 can def hit speeds that high, BUT it is a HIGHLY monitored road the cops are ALWAYS there.


FDR FORGET IT , If you want to keep your wheels

LIE is also a good place at night when no traffic is around towards LI

Northern State parkway all through suffolk... sure its not nyc but you've got straight roads, very easy to hit 120.. sure state troopers are there sometimes but if you have a decent radar is buys you a second or two to slow down...

its also a road where fatal and serious accidents are frequent.. so uh.. keep that in mind...

He's not talking about racing, he is just talking about any "interesting roads" where ppl drive "at the speed limit spiritedly" You know many of you do it.

He's also not a cop, I know him and there a quite a few members here that know me.
