It's a bit ridiculous if you think about it (it's like you're pissing people off around here by ONLY doing 15 over).

Well he rides the 55mph roads up Seneca Lake in Watkins Glen. I usually do 65 on the highway, to keep my fuel consumption low. but man people fly by all the time.

On the NJ turnpike people do 80mph in the middle lane and they'll be near 100 or more in the left lane.

It seems like they do it on purpose just to piss people off. especially when they are in the passing lane. you want to pass them on the right, but have no idea if they are gonna get over as you start to pass them. thats when ya gun it lol

I would still take the GT-R over any one of those cars. The Lambo won because it had traction off the line, and it was lightweight. The Subaru is still pretty sweet as it just can rip out a doughnut that easily. Nothing beats the sound of an American Muscle V8 though. Awesome drag.

My apologies if they say why, sound is busted for my PC at work, so I can't listen, only watch.
