    I figured you used quotes for Dodge sedan because it was a coupe. That is why i did. Lol.

    Ive topped 110-115 a few times. Cant even imagine 180.

    Totally agree. We have some pretty sweet turnpikes, toll roads, out here in Oklahoma. You can cruise at 85mph with lighter traffic but I'm still dumbfounded by people that like I said have a drink or the phone in one hand and are driving like this through the middle of the City! Nucking futs! I was going to drive something other than my truck the other day but it was already bad enough before all this with idiots always pulling up wanting to race. Plus, OKC has Tinker AFB so plenty of fresh out of boot Dodge Chargers..

    I've topped 115 quite a few times. It only takes me 11.7 seconds to do so.

    btw, the car pulled over for doing 187 was the hellcat version of either the charger or challenger. I've heard that the challenger tops out at 199 and the charger at 204, both hellcats.

    My high score was 165. That Richard Petty experience was fun.

    Unfortunately, when I was much younger and not as bright, I attained much higher speeds on the street than I did on the track. Probably just north of 150.

    Watching the news this morning, there was a protest yesterday in the Twin Cities a drive by rally about the lock down. Idiots with their assault rifles waving out the car window. I wondered about the IQ and motivation what kind of special idiot does this? Then I saw it an idiot waving a viking flag, pretty much sums it up.

    I must be missing something.

    What is the point of bringing guns to a protest? Seems like a good way to cancel the intention of the protest.

    I did not see the point of bringing assault rifles or viking flag either.

    Almost forgot my rant. I ordered some parts online to repair a furnace. Of the two I ordered only one showed up. Tracking number shows both being delivered. Now I have to call and get this resolved.

    Why can't everything work perfectly?
