    Crazy Motorcyclist - Victoria highway run 299km/hr

    Reckless Stupidity and/or Insane Bravery?

    I feel +5 dread just from watching it.

    He foolishly uploaded it to youtube, now the police are searching for him
    Hopefully they get him before he hurts someone.

    Man, if he wipes he is history.
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, totally worn out & proclaiming "WOW, what a ride!"

    If he went splat he would have got what he deserved. May sound harsh, but it's only sheer luck that he didn't pile into someone else and potentially kill them. He obviously didn't give a damn, so neither would I if he splattered himself all over the place. It would be one less idiot to avoid on the road.

    Kinda normal, no? Some stretches on the Autobahn have no speed limit whatsoever.

    Still remember that conversation with a guy here in NA. He had a nice car sitting there, working on it, sorry I'm not good with cars, suffice to say it was a racing car. However upon me mentioning that I pretty much would prefer one of my all time favourites, a Porsche 911, he started knocking Porsche. So I asked him what the fastest ever was he went with this racing car of his, after converting mp/h to km/h I was speechless. It turned out to be 180 km/h. Sorry, that's crusin' speed with a station wagon. My fastest must have been around 260 km/h (no, sadly not with a Porsche) but it's really hardly worth it, you'll just do a game from 120/140 up to 200+ and back down again. At least on the 400 km stretch I usually drove.

    Of course motorcycles are different. Heard of a few people that did that and then sold their bike again right away. Definitely not for the faint of heart. If it's legal, go for it. If there is a speed limit let it be. Can't do that somewhere where people don't expect it.
