Huh...guess those speeds aren`t all that surprising given the capabilities of so many vehicles these days.
"How did they catch him?" Radios and other LEOs.
I assume all those big-number speeders were taken into custody and their vehicles towed/impounded. Think those vehicles were in Autopian shape by the time the owners got `em back? Heh heh, not on your life...
I`ve never had an egregious speeding ticket, closest was being allowed to skate on 90-some on I64 (he didn`t even pull me over, we just exchanged gestures/etc. as I coasted back down into the 80s and he waved and took off). Accumulatorette got a 90-something in a 55 without any big drama. In our area, >20-over is a judgement call on the LEOs part, but triple-digits means your day`s schedule just changed, period.

As I`ve posted before, the whole "having a highly-capable car but not being able to use it" is what finally got me *OUT OF* really fast cars, even *with* a license! (I never end up doing many track days any more..) Driving a great car at 4/10ths simply frustrates me...constant exercise in frustration and self-control, just too far away from the vehicle`s "natural rhythm" for me to enjoy it.
