LBA 180
 

Had my opportunity recently to join the LBA 180 club... it was a blast ! Captured on video for the fun time that it was... It is most exhilarating when you come to a blind curve in the road and keep the pedal to the metal... :D
Looking forward to doing it again !

Damn...the most I've ever gone is a paltry 126 @ Pocono.

I'll turn in my power key at the desk.
:redface:

I'll turn in my power key at the desk also. Where I live in metro NYC there aren't many places & besides I can't conceive of speeds like that & the skill required. I've only had mine road ready since April 28, 05 but I took our VP's advise on pratical ways to blow out the junk. Thanks Ron! I use steep hills on local highways...111mph came so quick I almost had a seizure...2nd gear and no where near the shift light!!! These cars are too quick for production cars!

I got a laugh when I was driving to BG & I was coasting up hill on the PA pike doing 90+. I was thinking... Jeeze, I'm doing 90 uphill & traffic is going backwards & the guy in the M3 can't even keep up every time I nail it in 4th. These cars are amazing to me, but then I'm a rookie owner.

I think when I get the cash driving school is the first mod for me! The car needs no help!!!

too much fun 4 tt
 

good to see your having so much fun with the new zr-1 there tt!!! 7k rpm's is addicting isn't it? glad to see u posting here tt

Update...played with the Viper club @ Pocono yesterday.

145 mph on the Long Pond straight. :D

Wow, is all I can say to the guys that have been well into the three digits!
I'm not being too forward if I ask if driving school was on your list?

Hi Bryan! Yes in my own way I'm having way too much fun with my Z!! :mrgreen: Go on every cruise I can over at CF with the Northeast guys. You just gotta imagine what 20 or more vettes look like going thru a small town. People stop & stare! We got 40+ doing a run tomorrow. :thumbsup:

Tom

Yes, I've been to a couple DE and car control sessions.

I have a driving school in my future. Just haven't had the time yet.

My tale is not about Life Begins at 180. Mine begins with the sight of a new Black Itilan Stallion bearing down on me while I was taking a Sunday cruise North on I-15 between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, where I live. A young blond male, with his hat turned backwards, pulled up along side and motioned me by pointing down the road a reving his 12 piston engine. I was in 6th gear at the time and knew I could not do a thing, until my shifting hand found 3rd gear. Well, as all 405 Hp ZR owners know that is the magic gear. When I pushed the pedal to the metal I heard the Black Beauty looking for a gear to match. The next thing I know I'm back in 5th gear and Italy's best is no where to be seen. I think he took an off ramp so he would'nt have to face me any time in the future.

Good one Ed way to show the pretty boy the way to the exit ramp! LOL
