**SStriker** · 10-21-2007, 07:05 PM

**ATCharming** · 10-21-2007, 07:07 PM

**02ws6transam** · 10-21-2007, 07:10 PM

**02ws6transam** · 10-21-2007, 07:13 PM

u live in a big city?

**ATCharming** · 10-21-2007, 07:14 PM

well i live between some suburbs in a town of 7000 ppl which is still too much to be drivin 90-100mph on even country roads. all the roads ou there are hilly, curvy, and have trees/houses along them so theres really nowhere to let it fly

**02ws6transam** · 10-21-2007, 07:17 PM

that would suck

I drove our 2002 TA from Butte MT to Missoula MT at over 110MPH the WHOLE way it would hit 120-130 once in awhile. It was about 140 mile trip. MT for a while had not posted speed limit. "any reasonable speed". The road had some curves but nice and straight blue skies and no cops.

I live in the city and my work is about 35minutes north if im doin 90-110mph, a little if im doin 65-75 lol.

**Rikki_SeVeN** · 10-22-2007, 07:57 AM

there's actually roads where you can do that!!!!... I need to get off this Island...LOL... just kidding...

well...if our Rental Volvo did 90-100mph average in the Florida TurnPike... and was doing fine... (even while trying to chase down a beautiful Ford GT at 120+)... then I think our cars can do it too...

People drive 90-100 mph on interstate here its 70 mph here

**kebie05** · 10-22-2007, 11:25 AM

i done 90 to 100 for 4 hours or so in my expedition...i am sure an f-body can take it if that can.

If a 6-speed with stock gears, it'll be turning less than 2,500 rpm. No problems.

**hutch1999** · 10-22-2007, 11:32 AM

You should have no problems going that fast. When I had my 93 formula I ran 85-110 on a 90 mile stretch of interstate and never had a single problem during the trip or after it.

**ATCharming** · 10-22-2007, 12:30 PM

here in IL, its normal to drive 80-90mph in crazy traffic on the tollways. but i couldnt see going any faster than 90mph for a period of time anywhere

**02ws6transam** · 10-22-2007, 12:56 PM

i never thought about it that way(i'm only at about 2500rpms)

**96Firebirdformula** · 10-22-2007, 01:01 PM

Just got to watchout for the Troopers

IL drivers are bad, in chicago when the house of blues was on fire my friend Jimmy was hit 4 times and they all just drove off, one lady hit us then started yelling at us and we were in a parking spot parked.
