What's Everyone's Speed?

Ok for the auto-crossers I know the answer, but for those whom I haven't met yet, I would like to know your crusing speed. Personally, I favor the 100-130 range. But thats either on the track or when no one else is on the highway at night and I shut my lights off so no one sees me. OOPS!

I'm not quite that brave! I'd say I'm around 70 - 80 day to day. Just about everywhere I go Tracy is with me and she pretty much keeps me in check.

72. I figure 7mph over isn't worth their while. But I'm paranoid and can't afford any connection with the constabulary.

Well, my first ticket was for 92 in a 65 (thank God I had slowed DOWN).

I don't drive very fast on the street - I save it for the closed courses you can go fast w/o worrying about consequences then

I keep it about 80-85 for my daily commute, and occasionally hit about 100-110 when some jerk wants to ride me

MAXIMUM SPEEED!!! That's what you are able to do in Germany! That is, outside the city limits! It is recomended to travel at 130 Kph, which is about 81Mph within city limits on the autobon. MAXIMUM SPEED I SAY!!!
