that's hardly trying, is it? I've done worse..

What was the speed Top Gear got to when the speed trap didn't fire? Was something like 170mph..

Oh for fuck sakes!

So I can't spell! Who gives a fucken fuck? If I really cared, I'd spell check. I don't so get over it...

Oh it must be PMS, because that’s the only possible diagnosis of the problem. Maybe you should write a thesis with Hitcher about my un-educated slack-arse attitude towards my spelling ethics. I never showed an interest at school, never really appealed to me. It was more of escapism.

I’d like to thank you both for pointing out my spelling mistakes.

I don't think he died eh? I think it was one of those dumbarse rumours that go around. Like that dude that off Jackass that supposedly at 1kg of salt and died.. WeeMan I think it was..

New "unofficial" speeding record in "Germany" you mean. Guess 250kmph is extremely excessive to them...I don't think it would break any records over here though!

Was talking to someone today about a rider in the US who apparently got caught doing road speeds in excess of 320kmph!! Crazy Americanos.

Nah they're making a GR2005 so I don't think so?
You're not thinking of the Black Prince are ya?

**marty** · 26th June 2005, 20:20

considering a good number of german cars are speed lmited to 250k, and from what i've seen it is pretty common practice to sit on said limiter on the autoBAHN, how is this news?

On that note, jap cars are limited to 180 while euro ones (ex Porche, Ferrari, ect) are limited to 250. Sad, I dont know why, maby a tyre thing?
