Hmm.. you never know- there are a few rolling hills/light curves on
that road though- that was the ONLY way I got a auto-Integra to those
speeds- the piece of crap would be lucky to hit 120 on a good day
otherwise! It would pick up a mph or two on each downhill, then
maintain.. pick up.. etc. Needless to say, it's a LOOONG road- it
took awhile to get to that speed!
I forget hwat highway it is exactly- it's about maybe a few miles south
of the city, heading West is where we went. Look in the phone book
there for a fireworks sales place next time you go, about 80-85 miles
out of vegas. If it's off an E/W highway, that's it! Plus, you get to
load the trunk of the VR6 with rockets when you get there :)
