How Fast....
O.K. ... Just Because I'm A Girl Does NOT Mean I Don't Like To Drive Fast. I Actually Like It, And Try To Do It ALL Times. LOL I've Took Both Vettes Down The Track A Few Times, The Look On That Guys Face In The Ford Lightening Was PRICELESS! My Question To Ya'll Is- How Fast Have You Had 'er Up To?? The 2000 Is A Little Squirrely- Tends To Kinda Scare Me, So, It's Only Been To 115
LOL I Know, I Know... I Need To Grow Some .....

155 along the 95 corridor in N.C. at crack of dawn.
Roads were empty and I could see for miles. Car was still pulling hard, but lost my nerve and found common sense so I backed down.
Didn't take long to get there and it's amazing how smooth these cars are at those kind of speeds.
Your car should NOT be squirrely at 115. Get that checked out. I hit that speed or better weekly and my car never acts goofy.

I'm really not interested in top-speed runs so I haven't had it above 140 and that only for a second or two. I agree though. Your car should definitely not feel anything but rock-solid at 115 mph. A lot of us do that and better in the 1/4 mile! 
" road, car felt rock solid. Your car should feel pretty solid at 115 unless you have a bad alignment/bad tires/bend frame.

- you know this will get all the guys going on this forum.
Speed in excess of the posted limit is not allowed. Keep it to the track (sort of like keep it in your pants)!
