This sparked a conversation in IRC when I got home about how I don't think cops even bother doing speed traps at night.. by the time they catch up if you've reduced your speed how do they even know which car it was.

You would be surprised how good law enforcement people are at telling what cars are doing what. My dad could give speeds within 2mph of a given vehicle always. I would ride with him and quiz him. He could pick out what car was going faster (when I had no clue) and its speed.

Also, if two cars are roughly going the same speed, that won't save you either being with another car. I've been pulled over with 3 other cars before and given a ticket =/

Hit 160 (My record) then brag. (99 GSX 22lbs boost 100 shot no2 scariest and most stupid shit of my life ill never do again)
All of that to hit 160? Did you run out of RPM?

I hit 161 and still had more but it was night time and visions of deer running out in front of me made me back off.

Driving a 2001 BMW M3. No mods.

The fastest I've been is in an Evo VIII doing 177 - we hit rev limiter. I wasn't driving.

I was talkin more like.. If it's night and theres a cop on the side of the road, and you blast past him doing 100+, chances are you'll be out of view for a few seconds before he can get on the road, accelerate, etc.. if you were able to see him when you passed, and you take the extra minute or so to slow down to the speed limit and merge into traffic, how will he know who you were.

unless hes making at a very least of 500whp and over 2.5+ miles to get there and would have to be the MR with the 6 speed. Plus once 130+ you need almost twice the amount of HP to accelerate because of drag. The stock turbo would also run out of its air efficiency range might even need a pair of hks 272 cams.

I can only get to 160 in my S4 and im right around 500HP with upgraded turbo's and rebuilt 6 speed, the differential has also been re geared.

Yes, he had about 15k in mods. He was capable of 40psi boost but only had it set to ~32 to 34 running on E85. He was getting ~700 wheel. No AWD dynos in our area at the time, so he couldn't get it dyno'd without going to Dallas.
