Tonight I had a Rover club meeting in Addison and had a great trip up the tollway. After 121 it clears out. I let the lead out all the way to 70 (the posted speed limit).......:D

Needless to say the first warm evening windows down, V1 on, stereo cranked, and loving the whine of a turbo as I made my way through all 6.

Just got back from a trip to Denton to see an old friend. Last time I took the Vette up there she has recently had surgery so the G forces were not appreciated. This time we took a trip down 35w to "see the sights" ... One sight she saw was 155 - Hwy 155 or rt 155 not sure which... :evil

I'm not sure who the guy in the black chevy truck was but that thing wasn't stock...

The weather the last 2 days has been so nice Ive already sunburned the bald spot... Thats always a sure sign of spring....

Never knew you could get through all 6 and still stay under the speed limit. Just proves you're never too old to learn. :icon_mrgreen:

That is a nice stretch there from 121 all the way to 380. :tu:

167 is the top speed in the GXP.....but I can't ever seem to get past 70 in 6th gear either. :evil
