Coming home east bound on Rte. 80 in my Corvette in the early afternoon,not a soul around so I just floored it to see how fast it would go. Got to 135 and still had more but it started to rain so I backed out of the gas,and was coasting down when an Omni GLH
passed me at about 120 mph. I'll bet that guy was in seventh heaven thinking he had blown off a Vette. For a moment I considered going after him but then I thought anyone who would drive that car that fast in the rain probably wasn't playing with a full deck and I slowed down. Good thing too, for about a mile down the road the sky opened up and I couldn't see more than 10 feet in front of me. Haven't had the Cobra out on the road yet
but I doubt it will ever see more than 100 mph , yeah right!!
