There is also a "Tech speed" limit imposed.

I may get there (Mohave) with my Z and find out I have a speed limit

Can I find out my License Speed and my Tech speed before I decide to go?

I may find out I can get a better run on highway 99 or highway 58 on the way over to Mohave than on the runway at Mohave

The average speed on highway 99 (group of ten cars) was 90 mph last Thur (Dec 31st) and we were passed by several cars like we were standing still

Maybe the 99 we seen on a sign was the speed limit

At Mohave there is a "trap speed" and on highway 99 there is a "speed trap"....the latter will cost you some BIG bucks but it also costs at Mohave. On highway 99 you get your top speed by radar and it will be on your ticket and I would say it is official

That official speeding ticket will be suitable for framing as you like (just like your top speed ticket at Mohave) but the purchase price might be a bit higher
i could allways take you out to the panament valley. there is a 4 mile sec on the valley floor that from time to time i go out and test things out . the elevation is -200ft . i get there a daylight and the car just flat flies . its state route `120 exactly 1/2 way to death valley . by the way who did your porting ? and did you get a chance to have the car dyno tuned afterwards ?
