never mind the speed limits, what do you actually drive at?

Inspired by another thread on speed limits, i am curious as to how fast other car enthusiasts out there drive.

On average, 80 km/h, 30 km/h over the general limit for regular roads where I live. Not too bad, but for some reason the officers don't buy that as an excuse.

Re: never mind the speed limits, what do you actually drive at?

I don't know.....The digital speedo in my car works when it feels like it I just drive at what's comfortable, but for some reason, I keep having to use my left flasher

Re: never mind the speed limits, what do you actually drive at?

i usually drive about 8 mph over because the cops are everywhere here and don't stop looking at me. but like when me and another guy are messing around, i go a little, okay, a lot faster.

Re: never mind the speed limits, what do you actually drive at?

I cruise around 90-110mph on highways that I know(55-65mph speed limits) but I slow down if I am not alert or the weather is bad. When driving around town it really varies as to the road. Some I'll go 30mph if police put up alot of traps, others I'll go 60 in a 45. It really depends on the road and conditions.
