I hit 167 on mine, but we all know how the speedos are on bikes, could be +/-~5 mph haha...

Sorry to thread jack, maybe I'll pick up a dedicated track bike and stay off the streets for a bit.

You'll get a lot less dead. My street riding days came to an abrupt stop as soon as I went to the track for the first time. Didn't mean for it to, but street riding just got instantly lame. My mom is real psyched about it haha.

Hold on a second there. How the fuck do you get a corolla up to 160mph? Or did you mean 160km/h, which would make a lot more sense...

Nope, I completely mean one hundred and sixty miles per hour in a 2006 Corolla XRS.

I do like how no one brought that up until just now though. I got a good LOL out of it.

"Oh, that guy just said he went 160mph in a Corolla. Well that's just fine. Just fine." - Everyone until just now

Meet the perfect wife.

My own home with a badass shop.

Skydiving. No tandem shit either.

I've played guitar my whole life but, never had the guts to preform for anyone. Do it once.

Visit Japan and Venice.

Go to one of those performance driving schools for better myself. Self teaching only goes so far...

Should no. 1 and 2 happen I'd like to host our first family reunion/cook out at said place. Other than bro/sister, parents and grandparents the rest of my family I don't even know their names...
