Yo, WB

5/10 mph above speed limit is bout all you can consistently get away with, and that's the extra I average too. 5/10 xtra mph is about how much is realized while letting a one or two "Copper-Stopper" speedsters pull ahead. I agree completely - don't put others' lives in danger on the road for extra speed or otherwise. I don't drink (or smoke wacky tobackie)... so... no problem there ~ ~ ~ ! Lots of fun cruisen in my 67 Wildcat though. Passing in overdrive with 360 hp and near 500 lbs fpt can be a thrill! Only a few thousand miles on completely rebuilt engine - by a renowned professional race car machinist and fine mechanics!!
