    I'm out to prove my Corrado can still do the 140mph it was sold as being able to do

    track day ---- to many corners
    drag strip ---- not long enough (i dunno tbh)
    motorway ---- whoops there goes my licence!!!

    so does anyone know if anyone runs an airfield day or of anywhere that'll let you have a trash down the runway

    what do you reckon??

    thanks

    M40 - never seen the police on patrol, too busy putting up speed cameras in High Wycombe :lol:...

    but seriously.... I'm not too sure. Ask around some of your local parts places/garages and the likes of. They may be aware of somewhere that you can legally do it.

    M1 Northbound one Sunday evening around Birmingham when I did it last. [:$] :lol:


    From current driving experience I'd say west bound on the M62 getting on at Junction 36. ;)

    My Polo will only do 100 but you can do that there every day anytime after 6pm.


    A Scoobie passed me the other week doing what looked 140... :lol:

    thanks for the posts guys

    and don't you all mean there never any police around when your driving

    my luck does not stand up to these kinda tests!!
    for example failed my MOT wednesday morning, parts ordered, old MOT expired friday, picking the parts up saturday morning 5min drive into town, who should get stopped..... me

    so I ain't chancing 140mph an and instant ban

    airfield days looking good, few in the summer around lincolnshire so I guess I'll just have to wait a little
