She rolled over the 100k mile mark on my way home today, and I rang in the new century the only way I knew how--with the century solute!

So, that was you who gave me the fingure.

Very nice!! Ahh the memories. I took a pic of my old 1G hitting 200k, that was fun.

Eh? What you talkin about?

You know the one fingure solute. Just joking. It is nice that you got a camera to catch it hit 100k. Did you plan it out to take the picture while it turn or was it just a spur of the moment thing? Were you really going 110 MPH?

**scheides** · 08-11-2006

Yea, I sorta planned it; I have a camera on my phone, and had a semi-wide open stretch of road on my way home from work today so I stomped on it.

This was on hwy 100 going north, just crossing hwy 62. Note the other cars on the road ahead of me.

**Kracka** · 08-11-2006

Haha, I was blazing up Hwy 100 today too on the way home from work! 169 was at a dead stop so I continued on 62 until I hit 100 and it was really flowing quickly! I too did a triple digit blast; mine was to catch up to a newer Viper and scope it out, he didn't want any VeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeTaaaaaaaaaaak action though

That's EGT in the picture; boost is on my center console. I have a -30-0-30 gauge. You're still right, though

How come we can't see any smoke coming from under the hood?

Too much wind - It'd be going under the car at that point.

I'm getting really close to turning over 100K, I was thinking I'd top out the car for the pic, cause that would be funny, and everyone does the "100 at 100" pic. I bet I could get'er to 140 the way she is. Hmmm...
