    Ghost Rider takes on a challenger. The title of the video isn't accurate in my opinion. The following rider wasn't too far behind.

    That's true for most of the metros and densely populated cities.

    However there are places where you could drive really fast, but you would also run out of road very quick.

    Big deal, I did < 500...while hiking. I even did <1000. I don't see what's so hard about it.

    Re: What's the fastest you've ever driven?

    Got the Shelby on the big track at Willow Springs back in June and it was a blast! I passed everybody and even lapped one guy twice lol.

    On the front straightaway I could only get it up into the 140's though as there is a hard left turn you have to slam on the brakes and downshift in order to make. Well at least at that speed it seems like a sharp turn. Had the GoPro HD recording on my third session for almost 30 minutes. :drool:

    Re: What's the fastest you've ever driven?

    I'd be interested to see that. I lived in or close to Los Angeles most of my life and had never heard of Willow Spings Raceway until you mentioned it. I looked it up with Google Earth and see it's close to Lancaster.

    I did a search on youtube, willow springs raceway shelby, and found this. It says in the description, Willow Springs - Big Track 06.11.2011 Session #3 from my 09 Shelby GT500. That might be RobDog. He'll let us know.

    Re: What's the fastest you've ever driven?

    I touched 135 kmph once on the expressway (when it was new, the car was new, and needless to say, I was new). It was a Fiat Uno Diesel. There were two adults and seven kids on board. I was the second adult.
