Default 4th gear, 120mph...

coming home from an auto-X yesterday on I-95 a vette was messing with me for some reason or another so i put the 98 dx tranny in 4th and let her rip revs were at alittle over 6 grand and i was going 120mph. i was waiting for the gov but never saw it oh well pretty silly now that i think about it. i spun the car at the track and i stalled in 3rd gear then the car wouldnt start back up. anyone have this happen before. it took a few cranks but then it turned over.

Keep it off tha streets sucka!
Everyone says street racing is bad. I know this and am not arguing it. But he said he was going about 120 on the highway, some people might say this is racing, but what about all the other people going like 90 on the highway. Are these soccor moms in suv's racing, no their just speeding. Is there even a difference between speeding and racing, **** not here in texas where grandmas will try to pull on you in a heartbeat . I think driving fast on the highway is way worse than being out at 3am in the morning at the abandon warehouses where the "street races" are going on. People that drive fast on the highway are more likely going to take many people out if they make that one fatal move. Just my opinion though, as this is not a proven fact.
