200 MPH on Texas Toll Road
Hennessey C7 Corvette. Pretty cool.
Looks like he hit the spray (100 shot according to vid description) soon as he shifted into 5th and stayed on it for about 40 seconds.
You can really hear it pick up when he hits it.

Hennessy scares the hell out of me. Those guys build just evil fast cars. Cars that shouldn't go that fast without ejector seats or blast proof cockpits. Don't know how safe their builds really are but they fly.

Texans are CRAZY!!
OK, being a Native Texan, I'll admit that we don't exactly follow the crowd and do "normal" things. Down here we like to be a little bit different.
For instance, this is a state-sanctioned test of this Texas Toll Road and Toll Tag System...

That is ****ing awesome! That car sounds absolutely evil. I love how he drove with just the back of his hand all the way up to 100mph.
Also noticed how easy it looked driving at those speeds...the car looked completely stable, even above 150.

Didn't want to leave Ford out of the Texas fun.
Racing helmets and shorts. That's a Texan for you!
BTW, if you ever wondered where the Shelby Terlingua comes from, here is your answer.

That Corvette video was FANTASTIC!
I will attest to the fact that Texans are nuts after having many texan friends and spent may days doing crazy stuff with wealthy texans and their toys. They called me the "Crazy Canadian" though LOL…
