Speed is not your friend
This guy passed us in a 75 MPH zone and we were doing about 4 over. This was about 5 miles further down the interstate. The end result

Or up it to 85 mph, that way more people will be doing the speed limit. :)
I've read some studies that say people will drive at their comfortable speed, regardless of what is posted. On wide open highways/interstates 65 mph is totally unrealistic and silly. Drivers are on the interstate to get somewhere, not to sightsee. Let them get there and get off the road so I don't have to deal with them. :)
I agree with this.
Like it or not, modern vehicles have made it sooooo easy to do 80mph+.
If you aren't paying attention, you look down and you are doing 90 and it doesn't even feel like it.
Newer cars are quiet, smooth and the acceleration from turbo'd motors is crazy.
More and more cars are coming stock with turbo's. I know this is to help fuel economy, but a turbo increases acceleration alot.
Look at some of these factory cars coming with 600-800HP in a 3500lb car. This a basically a factory race car.
Government will step in at some point in the near future and stop auto makers from increasing HP all the time... just watch.
