flat out all the time... you must be crazy ... unless you have one of those cars that are limited to 40km/h (a légé or something, don't know how to write the name). No seriously, I used to drive allmost flat out all the time but that was really quite crazy and I'm a bit ashamed that I used to. Yeah you can drive fast, but flat out all the time... common that's searching for trouble IMO

I agree with Zippo. Unless your road is called Indianapolis driving flat out is CRAZY

Even if you believe you are Schumacher, how the hell can you drive flat out all the time? Even with a Fiat 500 it won't be possible...

yes there are a lot of people that drives fast even in town, and what they say? it's beautiful because it feels like you're doing 200km/h even if you're going at 100. I mean, 100 kmh in town is toooo much, it's dangerous for you and for other people. I hate those people. If you want to go fast, then, go to the racetrack. If you want to enjoy, there's no need to go flat out or even too fast.

I'd rather cruise and respect the normal speedlimits. Sometimes I have to work in Germany. The autobahn is great to rev it up...but when I exceed 200 an hour it is over for me...I think it is fast enough.

I live in a 40km/h zone. Sure I push the pedal to the metal the moment I get into my car.

Riiight. It's just a stupid question. Specify what the hell you're talking about or don't ask at all.

"It's not how fast you drive that's dangerous, it's the drive to be fast."

I just thought of that.
