One thing to note is that I would only ever do this sort of speed when I know there are no police cars and that I am not putting anyone else at risk, as there were no other cars I knew it wouldn't be hazardous to other road users and I always keep my eye open for unmarked police cars, damn sly the police in the UK, I got caught once 13 years ago for doing 50 in a 40 zone but only had to pay a £30 fine. Man 175MPH is damn fast for a big 4dr saloon, and it was still going strong
wow... 175 mph! I heard there is a fine of £10K for speeding in UK and for sure it's for much less than 175 mph. what will you get at this speed?
