halfwitt Posted May 22, 2008 #1 Posted May 22, 2008 Oh to be young and bullet-proof again. Check out this video (I hope this link works): http://www.kptv.com/video/16365346/index.html
Condor Posted May 23, 2008 #3 Posted May 23, 2008 At 164mph he wasn't passing those cars very fast. Sure it wasn't 164KPH.
SaltyDawg Posted May 23, 2008 #4 Posted May 23, 2008 Sure wish there was a way to catch this fool. Covering a football field in a little over a second leaves no time to respond to something in the road.
kantornado Posted May 23, 2008 #5 Posted May 23, 2008 164 KPH = 101.91 MPH or 149,46801 FPS and if you figure he would be covering a football field every 2 sec it is kinda scarry. But on the other hand I was blowing the cobwebs out tonight on 15 going south at a 110 mph for about 8 miles and it felt pretty good. Had my feet on the pegs and leaning back enjoying the ride. But on the other hand if a tire blew or some other uncool thing I would of been a smudge on the pavement. But we don't like thinking of them negative thoughts. Now if he was doing 164 MPH well that's just NUTS because that is 240.53336 FPS. Given reaction time and the 7 sec rule that's over 5 and a half football fields to react and decide what to do. Man now my head hurts but it is good food for thought..................Ron
MAINEAC Posted May 23, 2008 #6 Posted May 23, 2008 You think that's fast.... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwieel03c-w]YouTube - Suzuki Hayabusa with Turbo Vmax 390kmh[/ame] In KM it's 340
