There is a stretch of road back home..12 miles..straight not a single bend in it...took my uncles '71 cuda 383CI..started at one end and hammered down until I hit the other end needle registered 14MPH....almost went thru a full tank of gas..LOL....in 12 fucking miles!!!!
I think I change shorts afterwards..LOL
3 of us bought a formula ford back in the late 70's...looked like something right out of 'Grand Prix'...went up and down the highway with it at my parents...constantly went over 100MPH in it....shook like a motherfucker!!!on that rough road..
Also I raced Go-Karts back in the 70's.....I had 1 with a yamaha 250 engine in it with a 5 speed gearbox...took it to Barnsville Geogia to race, topped out at about 100 MPH..but seemed like 200 when you're only an inch off the ground...
