Why it rules driving in Texas.

Going with the flow of traffic at 92mph. And still getting passed.

^ lol what?! Really?

I-10 is like the Autobahn at times.

Stay away from Killeen. Its like a slosh bucket filled with all the worst drivers in the Army.

It can be like that on I-75 in Florida.. I was doing about 90 last weekend from Ocala to Tampa, got passed by a number of people.. Including a Tahoe that must have been at close to its top speed.

Heads up display (HUD) - option for the gp's, it is possible to add if yours doesn't have one

That would be the heads up display. GTPs and some GTs have it.

Its called a HUD. I picked mine up at a junkyard for $25 for the dash piece, display unit and controller. Here is how I put it in

All replies about HUD prior to OP's second post. Other two after he clarified.
Guess he should have quoted.

I would hope so, his car isn't even moving.

 

[oldtimer3]

and every small town is a potential speedtrap. Especially in E. Texas on I-20 and US 59....

How is it a speed trap? The speed limit is 75 now.
