That brings up a fair question… If there wasn’t a speed limit what would you consider a reasonable speed for a light traffic thruway drive? In the GTO with Z rated summer tires I’d probably be setting my cruise somewhere around 140. 🙂 ---

> [@JayS](#): > > I’ll never try and hold someone up who I think is going too fast. In fact, I’ll gladly let them by, give them 1000’ or so lead, then match their speed with the cruise control and let them run radar blocker for me. When they get nailed for speeding I’ll even give them a little roadrunner “beep beep” as I go by. 🙂 This 👏 ---
