I have to agree that a 308 is a great looking car and sounds good. But driving one always leaves me disappointed. I understand why there are so many of them with so few miles.

Krazik- if the CHP gets you at 100, you're going to jail. Worse, if you are on your way to work, it must be commute hour and you're gonna kill yourself, or someone else on 17. You sure that speed, on that road, is such a good idea?

Depends on where he goes. If he has to go up 280, got for it. No traffic that direction, especially on Sunday. When/Where I hit my top speed of 130 yesterday.

bbsilver- if you're (krazik's) talkin 280 on a Sunday morning, go for it. I would be right behind him (or maybe in front of him). But he said every day on his way to work. He probably works M-F and just over the hill. That means Hwy 17 in commute. How 'bout it Kraz? Is it safe?

146 in a modified 93 LT1 Camaro Z28 according to the reckless driving summons I received from the NJ State Trooper. I still think he was wrong.

Oh yeah the judge didn't think it was funny.

I've been close to 0.98c in my starship (if this makes no sense to you check out your old high school physics books), and I look really young for my age.

I can guarantee he is not going 100 on 17 during rush hour.
