Who said anything about doing it 'with any regularity'? And I hardly consider myself an idiot nor do I believe anybody else does who knows me. I have hit 120 twice in the 'Stang and even though it was smooth (as I said in my post), I immediately backed off because I was aware of the dangers of the moment. And I just might have enough high speed driving experience to know when I'm over my head.

Don't take it personally, Danny really didn't mean anything directly at you. He's just a point black type of guy and not one to spare anyone's feelings. Partly because he's an asshole, the other part cuz he's lazy and it just takes too much effort to be polite. I can kind of relate to that. lol

Don't be too sensitive. The car, as Ford built it, is squirrelly as fuck at high speed. But that's easy to overcome with a few aftermarket parts.
