But just this one time.
Hennessey Performance, builders of some of the fastest custom cars on the planet, including the 275 mph Venom GT, offered up one of their 1,200 hp Cadillac coupes to test the cameras fitted to the automated toll system on the brand new SH-130 toll road, which boasts the highest speed limit in the nation at 85 mph.

Legally, maybe - one guy was over 200 in a Vette on the way to houston (Hwy 290 exit off of toll road) for Vette meet. I live next to that toll road and it was speed city at night for bikes and fast cars until they started clamping down...
