Not often you can find a long stretch of road, with no traffic around here, and these high speed endeavors definitely belong on a track or elsewhere.

GSXR 1100 Suzuki 150 mph, once, was a good friends, he said, don't hurt yourself, no restriction pipe, carb kit, all dialed in and tuned in, never again- one wrong move and the air seems like it will pull you right off the bike. Did a bit less than that on my 650 maximum, that suzuki would toss you right over though, those crotch rockets are unreal, once was enough.

'96 mustang cobra convertible - 140 mph, top speed supposed to be 152 mph, the car will do it, but it's kind of scary, never again, the air rushing over the top seems to push downward on that car, one little thing goes wrong, you're toast.


'64 ford 4000 gas - S-O-S trans. 10th gear headed down the road, was a former NYS thruway mowing tractor, was darned fast for a tractor, seemed well over 30 MPH, just cannot imagine something going wrong on the front end while riding on the fender !

One thing about all of this, high speeds are nothing to fool with, have all kinds of respect for high speed, been there and done that, no need to go there anymore and I don't recommned it unless one is trained, equipped and at the appropriate facility etc.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea ... [Read Article]
