The false bravado runs deep in this thread. Perhaps it's closure time.

150 mph on an open highway out in the country. What could possibly go wrong??

coreseller I don't care what you think of me or what I did. I received pm's telling me that people like your holier-than-thou diatribe, name calling and flaming always hit these threads.

BrokenLinkage nailed it and I could care less what your hypocritical self says what I can do in my car as long as I'm not putting anyone, but myself in harms way. You seem to lack the understanding of that part.

Cool story, I've actually heard worse. I have one too, though the ending isn't sad. I know this guy that drove a Porsche Boxster S 151 MPH on a 3 lane, one direction, perfectly surface highway with no cars on it or on the highway parallel to it.

The ending, he's living a perfectly normal life, happy as can be with the performance of his car holding steady as can be to the road.

Even though you don't care what I think of you, I'm going to tell you anyways, since you came back into this thread throwing shots at me and telling stories. You are a hypocritical, name calling, flaming and holier-than-thou jerk. Damn I sunk to your level with the jerk part.

With all due respect, which is none for you now since you can not comprehend what I have posted in this thread, don't forget your soap box on the way out hypocrite.

I don't think there is much more to say. We could go back and forth until the cows come home, I won't change your mind and you certainly won't change mine.

If you or yours end up in an ugly accident (I honestly hope that never happens), maybe then you will grow up and realize excessive speed often carries consequences, often to the innocent.

For the love of God, talk about "myopic vision". Take look in the freaking mirror.

With every post you are digging your hole deeper. Best to stop while you are behind. I'm outta this one.

BTW.....Your signature (quoting me) was what they call Sarcasm.....................you conveniently left out the ".............Wow"

Digging your hole deeper, not at all. You just look like a fool that won't listen or only read what he wants to and ignores the rest. No that wasn't sarcasm in your post, don't even try that one.

Since you're out of this one. Here, knock yourself out, go have fun!

coreseller, my issue is you're repetitiveness of me putting others in harms way. I did not do that. I have repeatedly said this, maybe that's why your not getting the support you want, also probably everyone here has foot their foot down in their Boxster, some even faster then me on public roads.

Lets see if I can help clarify this. My job depends on my drivers license, there would be no way on Earth I would do this with any vehicle around, for one I don't want to put anyone in harms way and two any car could be a police officer, I'm going to jail and will loss my license and my income. I will not chance that. I've been at my job for 27 years in which I get full heath benefits paid for, pension and make a pretty good dime too, I'm not going to toss it out the window.

If I splat myself doing this. I went out having fun instead of dieing from a heart attack, stroke or any other physical ailment, which scares me more then driving my Boxster at 151 MPH. Also both my grown up daughters would get paid more on my life insurance if I die in a car accident over a health related issue. Not that I want to die, but hey you have to look at the bright side of things lol.

People jump out of air planes, bungee jump, fly hang gliders. All of which could turn on them at any moment and kill them, yet they still do it. It's human nature to get a rush from these things, but I won't do any of those above as they scare the crap out of me. Motorcycles scare the crap out of me too. As a kid yeah I had a dirt bike and loved it, but these crotch rockets, no way. What I see guys do on those is pure insanity to me, but that's their fun, have at it.

There is no winner or loser in this thread. There is a communication gap going on.
