I didn't think it was legal to be going backwards in reverse on that type of road, that or at least all the other vehicles appeared like they were....

You must have been flying, how fast were you going ?

Are all those trucks stopped on the highway or does it just look like they are standing still?

Hi,
want some more? i post one more later.
I reached nearly 300 km/h on the speedo. I didnt go full throttle.
My car does like 340 on the speedo, but thats kinda risky even for michelin tires. I only got about 510 HP. K16 , gt2rs ics, chip and Exhaust. 100-200km/h on GPS i did, 7,6 sec.

There was no speed limit, so totally legal.

that looks like a LOT of fun! yes, they looked "standing stilll". it didn't look "safe", but fun that is safe is tame. that looked like good ol fashioned semi dangerous fun!

plus your drivers there are far more courteous! that guy instantly pulled over to the right. here, they would've stayed there in "fast lane" out of spite! enjoy safely! reminds me of that old song "fun fun fun on the autobahn" lol

Sadly enough, the autobahn usually is kinda crowded, so u cant go so fast all day long. The fast lane mostly is blocked by slow cars. So at night, late evening or early morning is the best time to do top speed rides.
For a truck it should look like this if yu go 300+ km/h. The 2CV goes like 55 miles per hour.

Thats was a 996 turbo by the way
