Buzz,
I never speed on the highway, especially with that car. Every CHP and LEO that sees it really looks it over. I had one CHP office follow me 15 miles once and when I stopped to go into a store he pulled right in beside me. I waited to see what he wanted and he was very nice. He said he had seen one of the 69 Cobra hatch backs at a car show once but had never seen the fastbacks which us what they used in NASCAR and would I let him look it over. We must have spent 30 minutes talking and he was a car nut and had a couple of MOPARS. When I want to blow it out, I take it out on a long new straight road they just cut through a few years ago and run it up to around 6300 in 3rd gear. With the low gear ratio it has, I am not speeding.
