Deserted highway...200 km/h. No one else around. The thing is my buddy was tryin to beat me somewhere and he ran the red, but i had time to slow down so i stopped for it. Then the light took FOREVER, then finally, it turned green so i nailed it and up the road he saw me comin, tried to floor it but couldnt get the momentum i had, so i FLEW past him liek he was in reverse.
Even after going WOT running a red light

About 210. Not many empty, straight roads on the island. There were a few cars ahead so I slowed down.

Wrapped the 300km/hr speedo on my '96 Fireblade a couple times, but I'm with Shawn on the car. Fourth only takes me to 126mph.........in 10.9 sec.

118mph.

Speed limited

It's very frightening when you're basically inside a tin can
