Speed anyone?

drove my car from NYC to CT, about 185 miles distance. The ride is usually fun but this time is was downright amazing. got the car up to 136 mph, on the straights. It has much more but around any highway turns small bumps on the road make u slow down a bit but still gives u a nice kick. took some pics hopefully it shows up ok. enjoy!
P.S. anyone who owns an M3.... impressive. On the drive back i was at around 120 and an M3 was hanging nicely, except on the turns, he slowed down. We were on it for about 40 miles, FUN!

It always surprises me to see someone take pictures of the speedo at nearly 140. I always seem to be watching the road at that speed.

When doing about 180 mph on the autobahn the last thing on my mind was snapping a picture of the speedometer. (Perhaps that was the real reason behind many high speed accidents).

When you're going that fast you really shouldn't even be looking at your instruments,--you should be heads up and looking about 2-3 miles down the road.
