I never said that all of you don't have legit reasons or excuses for taking the car up to those speeds. But at least 2 or 3 people in this thread have indicated that they were on public highways - inferred by the police presence and their fear of getting caught.
I won't take the moral high ground because I have, in the past, gone a teensy bit over the speed limits. However, this IS a public forum, and these forums DO promote the FR-S and the BRZ, this thread gives the impression that people drive these cars far above posted speed limits. I needn't tell you that perception, however right or wrong, is often a stronger influence than reality.
Basically, if you have gone to those speeds, at least qualify it with the statement that it was done on a track or airstrip, or autobahn, or as we call it up here in Canada, a "closed track in Mexico".
