Ahhhh, the good ole days (of no speed limits)

[laserspeeddemon]

This was back when I was in germany on A81. Running on the 14b @ 19 psi, no boost leaks, and running at 100%. I don't know how fast I went (after 145 mph), I just know it was fast.

 

[irish_love]

Did you break the tack on that run? Miles seem to be the same on both pics. That is fast. I've got mine up to 130, but wow that is fast.

Are we looking at a photo chop or actual pics?

I think the car is a victim of a rolled back odometer. 1990 Talon with only 71k.... I don't think so, I beleived it at first, but then the odomoeter seems to stall at sometimes and jump numbers at others. Also, the trip-meter never moved since I owned the car.

They are real pics, and just for kicks here is a video, where I fly-by the camera car that was traveling at about 105 mph at about 2:30 into the video (and then got stuck behind a car) which also show that I am indeed in Germany at the time.

I got other pics of me in the ole' DSM while in germany, if you feel I need to prove myself any further.

By the way, nice photoshop, do you think you can photo shop some rims onto a Talon?

I didn't doubt that it could be done (145+mph) I just wanted to know if it was a photoshop because its in the photoshop forum.

I could photoshop some rims for you no problem, but I do 99% of my chopping at work, and I currently don't have PS on my computer due to company software upgrades.

I just noticed that I put it in the wrong forum!!

1990 Talon with only 71k.... I don't think so

my 1991 has 83k

 

[laserspeeddemon]

my 1991 has 83k

I say it's fake.
#1. How did you take the first pick head on of the speedo? One hand while taking a pic. @ 145+?
#2. There are two angles, so either you put it on cruise control and sat in the passenger seat for the second pick, or the first pic. was taken with the passenger on your lap.
#3. Is your odometer broke, as the above stated, mileage is the same in both pics.?

Passenger took both pics, He actually took like 9 pics these were the only two that weren't blurry as all f*ck. I guess I faked the video too
When I post my video of the Nurburgring, I guess I faked that one too.

I say you need to learn how to READ... Reading comprehension is a tough skill I know, but with enough practice you might get better.

1= cameras really aren't that large, and its very possible for him to have a passenger that can hold a camera
2= read number 1... cameras are small nowadays
3= hes already gone of this... re read this thread at least 8 times... you might get it.


Cool pics. I plan to get some video when i start racing of a 30-170 or so straightline pull.

I can honestly say that Ive met this guy and I dont think its a ps or fake at all.

And laserspeeddemon, Im in Team Trinity, 1g grey awd with EVIL AWD on the plate. I met you last year at either gmu meet or gt7, cant remember.

 

[dr1665]

The only time I got to drive on the Autobahn was in a buddy's Passat Wagon. I'd love to get the DSM over there for just a week...

Nice video.

 

[BGGSTin]

I'd like to officially retract my previous assertions. I just didn't get the odometer thing, I know you can take a pic with one hand on the wheel at high speed. Sorry I'm a conclusion jumper

 

[dr1665]

Sorry I'm a conclusion jumper

It's okay. We've all played with that mat from time to time.

It would be nice, however, to see more videos of cars moving where the cameraman wasn't going through detox or an Epileptic siezure while filming the good parts. Lean back, hold the camera close to your chest and be smooth. No need to hold it out in front of you and get all creative with the zoom and shit.

Yes, I remember the plates, what is gt7?

On a side note, I tested the wifes eclipse on the same Autobahn. In fact me and a 98 Integra GS-R went at it. It just so happens, that I missed that 120 kph zone that we entered at over 250 kph. You can not know the sinking feeling I got when I saw the blue lights in my mirror. I looked at the speedo and I was decreasing speed from 130mph. I thought for sure I was facing serious jail time. But as I slowed down and pulled over the GS-R kept running and the Silver E-Series BMW chased him instead. I stayed off to the side of the road for about 5 minutes, when I relized I was waiting around to get arrested.

I went home and called the MP's. They said, if they don't get a call from the Poliezi. Then I don't need to worry about it. And if they do, they'll be at my house to arrest me (I wanted to do the right thing). I honestly missed the speed limit signs it was almost midnight and we were going over 140 mph (his speedo goes to 155 mph and he said he topped his). So same story, but this time I got a scare.

You looking for trouble?

 

[BGGSTin]

Only when people are a**holes which again is one of the reasons this site blows half the time. I'm not trying to disrespect you in any way lleet, I'm defending myself. Were there other ways to go about it, yeah, probably but at the time an insult to my intelligence wasn't something I was going to take. Next time I'll just use some restraint.

Forgive me, I've never been on the 'Bahn or heard much about it. They have zones where the limit jumps down to 120 kph from limitless??

well obviously after the diarrhea of the mouth that ensued when you could have read the previous posts and figured out the answers to your questions, you deserved some reprimanding for your lack of foresight.

 

[laserspeeddemon]

Yes

A large majority of the Autobahns near the cities are 120kph which is the highest limited zones they have. Then we you hit the open country the limits are removed. When you come near a city, there are usually signs noting a speed zone is coming and then the speed limit signs pop-up. So yes, they do infact go from speedlimit-less to 120 kph.

 

[RiceKiller_TSi]

So you have to slow down to 70mph? That sucks when you're cruising at 100+. It feels like doing 55.
