Errrm, we used to see how fast we could get up the Windsor and Eton releif road in the deep of night.
Corsa 1.2 16v would not manage over 92ish leptons with 3-4 people in it.
Ibiza is well capable of loosing my licence down there now

Used to love driving quickly, such a buzz.
I used to overtake in very stupid places though when I was 17/18, was very lucky looking back.
I remember taking my old man down to Bury to pick up his Saab 900 Turbo. I came off the roundabout onto a dual carriageway in front of him and got up to 140, then pulled in and he carried on past

From the slip road closest to the Netherley road to bridge o' dee just before the 40 zone.
Yeah, the speed cameras are a bugger, but if you've taken your brave pills then Muchals is okay (if its dry) .

A up hill climb of about a mile.

Used to have a run from motorway up dual carrage way, see top speed before first turn-off. Mine was about 95 iirc my brother used to get 125 in his accord And then there's a slip road that was called the 'spiral' which was basically a big 3/4 circle about 1/3 mile long and we'd see who could get the top speed around there. My mates 106 xsi used to manage about 90 which was quite scarey
That was about 8/9 years ago though and was pretty silly considering.

We always used to see what we could get out of our cars from the Mc donalds drive through, up to the bridge.

Pig baiting on bikes was fun, ride round with a fake plate on untill you find a copper, do something to get him to chase you then gun it to the bypass where one of our mates would be waiting with a van. simply ride up the plank into the van, bung the doors shut and drive off as if nothing happened. Had a hairy moment once when the chasing copper pulled the van over and asked if the driver had seen a biker go past.
Also used to do the 'circuit' in nottingham before the dispersal order came about. God that place was madness, saw a couple of crashes too.
still do the lincoln to skegness race to this day, perhaps its foolish but why else buy a fast car if your not going to use it properly

lol i used to do this just going to the ex misses, i used to come off the ring road off towards the hospital, hit that big round about once at 60 must of hit some crap on the road as next thing i knew was the car going a bit sideways, kept it going and ended up coming off the round about at around 80.... gawd things i used to do when i was younger
My mate has hit that roundabout 5 times in his skyline doing that and trying to drift lol.
i forgot about the AA Loop challenge.
who has the biggest balls to go round the loop the fastest comming off the duely, i know of a skyline R34GTR and a ITR that have both been written off on this corner. i can do it at 70.
on another note i used to do door to door from pompr uni to my house in 45mins in my 12volt

146 is that all??
I also used to to that back in the day.Wait for an empty road then foot to the floor all the way after the 1st corner coming from Kdy end.Think the most i topped was 160 in the Pulsar.Astra V6 was around 150.The 328i sport was about 155 and the cavvy gsi turbo was well off the clock.lol.
Let my old man loose in the Pulsar 1 night and he hit 145 then he shat out and hit the brakes.And that was only at the turn-off for going to the Coaltown o Wemyss.
Would never attempt anything like that now-adays tho.
