Normally I don't post cars that I spot. However, I had to take a road trip to Winona for work and I noticed this beautiful 92-94 Talon AWD pass me as I'm about to pull into traffic. It was that main highway that takes you from St. Mary's to the VoTech on the other side of town. It was red, just immacculate. Big front mount and stainless exhaust. I wanted to pull him over and give him props, but road construction was everywhere. If you know this man, or if you yourself are a member, I just want to say............nice aviator shades.

Speaking of Winona...I took a cruise down there on Saturday with my S2000 group and Hwy 14 west out of Winona through the bluffs is by far the most fun road I have ever driven on. I was holding triple digit speeds and I swear I could do that all day and never get bored!

If I'm remembering correctly from a couple of years ago, that strip outside of Winona on 14 is where a guy got a speeding ticket on a motorcycle for 180mph or some crazy shit like that.

Call BS all you want; I was there, you weren't.

Are you refering to the RC51 that was supposidly doing 205 or something stupid like that?

10-4.
That was later found to be bs since the bike wasnt capable of those speeds. The pilot that "clocked" him used the method of counting the number of mile markers he passed over a given amount of time. Very unaccurate at those speeds.

I can pretty much gaurantee it was Jed. He has a really nice red 1g.
And about doing 100+ up HWY 14 over stockton hill is very possible. I've done it in my GST and many of my friends have done it in their cars. Its a fun road to rally on. From Winona to Lewiston is a very fun drive.

This is probably why Jakey said 180 since thats what the bike was capable of, not 205.
