so lets talk about cultural differences. The highest speed limit within 500km of here is 90...KMH! what the he11 am I going to do with 350hp? fortunately I am only 45min from the swedish border. the country where the roads are open, men are free and the moose are scared!

A month ago I got a speeding ticket for doing 82km in a 60 zone. 6500 Norwegian Kroners - that's nearly 1200 DOLLARS!! jesus H. the scariest of all was that at 85km/h I would have lost my license! I didn't even mean to drive fast, I drive a reasonably powerful "americanized" pick-up with automatic so 70km to 80kmh feels like, well, nothing.

I think I will be getting in the 930 and driving straight to the border.
I-44 is just a few miles from my house. The speed limit is posted at 75 MPH. Anyone that goes that slow will get run over. The traffic flow is 85 MPH. There are open places when the view is unobstructed for miles. I have heard rumors of people going triple digit speed for many miles

We don't have many curvy roads in this area. We do have a great race track for our autocross. It is the most legal fun you can have for 15 bucks.
