guess its standard then.

[Spindoctor]

I'd expect a bit more camera shake at that speed... or is it photoshopped? If not, hope you were on a track

[antgtv]

Yes, standard VXT. Well, it is at the moment.
Track was nice and clear:

[urbanmac]

so you just admitted to 150mph on the motorway

[flamy]

congrats

Not really sure what to say but the vx experience isn't about how fast I can go I get a buzz and the "vx smile" from getting up to the speed limit quickly, the pull in the first 3 gears and the knowledge that I can take corners at speed. Might be getting old and sensible but the thought of living with myself if I injured someone else doing 150 doesn't bare thinking about Also I love my VX way too much to risk being banned from driving it Just my opinion, and each to their own I suppose Rich

[antgtv]

Did I? What motorway was that then?

Rich

to be fair your promoting going fast round corners... how do you know whats round that corner?? 4x4 at the side of the road? kid crossing? cyclists? moped rider? accident? copper with speed gun?

either way if something goes wrong you'll be done for dangerous driving and banned anyway.. lol

If you read my response properly I said getting up to the speed limit quickly and the knowledge I can take corners at speed

A blind bend etc would be speed restricted accordingly

I'm not "promoting" anything! - you've obviously never seen me drive - driving miss daisy springs to mind lol

Track was nice and clear:

My only comment is that even tho the track was nice and clear..... you are still sat in the middle lane

you seem very proud of your achievement, go tell these guys too Clicky.....

Well I'd say that would be so that he can go 150 safely, having loads of time to react if a fox or similar ran out from the sides of the road

[SAPD]

And, while you're following links, these guys would probably be impressed with your achievements too Tell 'em you were linked there by vx220.org, I'm sure they'll understand.

[snoopstah]
