There are easy ways to go extreemly fast and not get caught.
First off you need a radar detector and be going on a highway that you know really well.
Don't speed unless you have a "rabbit" ..... basicly you just sit and wait for someone going faster than you and then drop back about 400 feet and and match his speed.
If he brakes you brake faster..... if he sees a cop he's going to slow down so the key is to allways be going the same speed or slower than he is.
By the time your in site of the cop you have allready managed to drop well bellow the speed that the cop tagged the "rabbit" with.
If a faster "rabbit" passes you then you switch and tail him from a distance.
It's really simple but it requires you to watch the other guys car very carefully....if he brakes and you don't the cop will go after you instead.
I usually find 6 - 12 people going very fast on a 3 hr trip and sometimes you can make it into a game with the other driver so that they try and go faster than you.....but you allways let them win so that they are in front of you.
Some guys simply won't let a car like a Daewoo Lanos pass them so they speed up everytime you get close to them (especially if it's a very expensive sports car)

the fastest car i've been in?
me driving... my Daewoo 195km/h... the engine was screaming at me ... i've never been faster than that in any car...
but i've been in very fast/powerfull cars: Lancer Evolutions V,VI, Nissan 240sx (SR20DETs), Honda Civics/Integras/Prelude/Accords VTEC NA 1.6, 1.8 (highly tuned) and an stock 2.2, non-vtec 1.6 (ZC), Civic Vtec TURBOs (Very high tuned)... many more... not all were driven to top speeds... all of them are 12 to 14sec 1/4 mile cars.

i didnt notice i said i havent been faster than 195 kmh!!!
well im my car i've reached that speed :P
but i must say is a 220+ (wasnt watching the speedo) on Lancer Evo Tommy Makkinen in the passenger side.

fastest ive been was 165mph in like a 2000 cobra mustang when i was like 14. The kid driving dad owned a performence shop for mustangs and it was all fixed up.
Ive been 130+ in my forenza without any problem, still strongly going but had to slow down due to traffic.
But the fastest car ive ever rid in was a 1994 (not sure of the year) Toyota supra with 670bhp. It was soooooo nice. That was about a year and a half ago, now the guy almost has 900bhp on it. Daily driver too... or it was when i knew him better. It was beautiful.... I was into cars when he gave me a rid but ever since them ive been determined for power.

almost bought a 1995 300zx 2x2 twin tubo... took it for a test drive and was going about 150mph before i knew it... the dealer ship guy told me that i should punch it to see what it tops out at .... needless to say i didnt
then two weeks ago i rode in my friends 91 Talon, that he sunk $11,000 USD into, we didnt go "fast" we went like hell!!! we were doing 120mph or so in third gear, then backed off (doesnt have insurance) and was only in about 1/4 of a mile.. so thats about a 10sec car "i think" dont know for sure

My top speed ever in my 1.5 Lanos is pathetic compared to you guys... its 155 Km\h but i am not a top speed freak, i can have much more fun on 2nd and 3rd gear on a really twisty, slippy street than doing 250Km/h on a highyway.
as for the Rabbit theory of Erfinder; it is really nice and i used it during speeding however at night the radar just takes a pic of the speeding car so i could see the flash from some 500 meters away.
i never speed on a road i don't know well or driven throught it before... unless it is too wide, too straight, too empty and it is in the morning... other than that it is a major risk.
i already got tickited for speeding twice: once doing 81 Km/h in a 60 Km/h zone and the second while doing 137 Km/h on a 100 Km/h zone... if i got ticketed for a third time i am facing a 6 month suspension of my licince

On a trip up to Gainesville (160 miles up I-4). Huge interstate, no traffic, and we were doing 125 MPH in the Civic. I know it is pretty safe because the cops don't patrol the interstate because it is between counties and really isolated and the road is really straight, flat, and clean. Well we are sitting there going fast and out of the corner of my eye, I see a yellow blur whiz by. Now we were going fairly fast, but this Lamborghini (from what I made out) must have been doing 190-200 MPH. That just kinda makes you feel small.
i had the same thing happen to me.. i was going 100mph in the lanos heading out of vegas into california and a corvette passed me doing about 150mph+ then a Porsche Carrera GT flew passed me at what seemed like double the speed of the corvette, thats when i realized i should slow down.. cause i know the cops couldnt catch them but could catch me for sure!!
you guys ever look at the monthly payments on a car like that.. $10,000 USD a month lol
