Re: AVERAGED 108 mph?!

Gotta throw in my top-speed story:
(Obey all posted speed limits)

Car: 1983 5000s automatic (non-turbo)

While a freshman in college, 3 pals and I made a roadtrip about 110
miles away- on the way back at 3am, I turned on IDIOT mode and drove the
110 miles without lifting off the throttle.

Made it back to campus in just about an hour. Some mile-marker and clock
calcs confirmed we were _well_ over 100mph. At redline for 1 hour,
toting 4 college pinheads without a hint of problems.

Anyone have a clean, silver 83 5000s turbo manual for sale??
