| Seriously what is the point, your never going to get to do that on a road(except maybe on very rare occasions). Like with cars like the Bugatti Veyron(the fastest car in the world) it can do about 270MPH but whats the point your never going to get to go that fast unless your in a rally/race. | |

| Because its possible... no other reason. Its like the aeroplanes, after the Concorde ever commercial airline is a step backwards. I like driving, and doing it fast just heightens the experience. I could agree if you lived in California, like you do. But thats almost the only place you can go fast without getting to much of a penalty from the cops. For example, my uncle was driving 200kmh (~120mph) on the highway and got caught by the cops. He lost his license for a half-year and had a fee to pay. Now a person in California was driving much faster, 350kmh (~210mph) and only got a fee of 3000$ to pay. And if he would do it again the fee would be 5000$ nothing else.... Joyriding is fun I have done some real racing, and its a lot of fun I was at Nürburgring this year and put down 3 laps with my Volvo. Im planning of going back next summer. Theres nothing that takes the edge over overtaking a Porsche/Ferrari in my Volvo 568whp, over 650 in the engine My Volvo 850T5-R Estate | |

| you can go places where you can drive at that speed. and some just do it just to show what they are capable of doing. like the bugatti veyron it cost millions to make but they sell it for less than a million just to show off really | |

| Its so the faster the car the cooler you look, the faster the car, the more damage there is when you have your crash | |
