Yeah, I would like to do it someday... but as I get older, and have more people relying on me, my 'nads to try it get smaller.

Of course, there is nothing that says you have to go full out for the entire mile. I think I'd chicken out ~160 and I know my Vette would easily surpass that if I gave it all it had.

I seen it make one pass at 183. Was curious who it was. I can't see myself going that fast in a truck. I plan on running the Z in the Oct. event. They limit you to 190 if you don't have a cage. The new bike record is 261 and the new car record is 251. Its a cool event with alot of horsepower.

I know that I do not have the nads to go 180 in my truck (even if it will go that fast). I think 150 would probably be my limit. :eek2:
