My goal for today, get the camera out @120, then I should be at least above 100 when I take the shot

Default this reminds me of those kids who video taped themselves driveby shooting people with paintball guns

not to mention that if you're going that fast you should have both hands on the wheel... leave the pictures to your passenger

Default maybe I'm just overly cautious now...

I've been on empty roads, I've hit the fuel cutoff on every car I've owned... empty roads are great... but what happens when a deer jumps in front of you at that speed? of when box has fallen off a pickup truck and is in the middle of the road just over the crest of the next hill? what if you have a blowout?

(note: not edited, not Pchopped and not a Dyno run... this thing is honestly going that fast).

(and the yellow light is 'Traction Control Disabled' - the setting of choice for performance driving in the NSX, even though most folks think it's the 'Holy Chit, Yer Gunna Die' light)

Default Wow, didn't know Acuras could go that fast. That's gotta be kph :)

But then again, judging by the rpms, it might not be kph...

Default MPH...

but t'wasn't a stock NSX... (for a chuckle - think about what the metric speedo on an NSX would be reading).

FWIW: depending on the year, those things top out in the 167-173 mph range.
