I don't buy it.  Look at how fast the road stripes and scenery goes by.  I've only been up to 150 MPH on a bike and, as I recall, the center line looked like just that - a line.  Yep, I definitely have to throw the "BULLSHIT!" flag on this one.

That video has been on the web for years.  I've never really bought it either having done about a buck forty myself in the past.  Something seems wrong..

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Agreed that speedo seems to be calibrated in Kph not Mph

Seems what the defense lawyer for the corvette guy would claim. It was just internet BS, a little harmless hoax. Prove otherwise.

How far apart are the road markings? would be easy enough to calculate approx speed to the nearest 10mph

it would be pretty easy to prove its not a hoax...  all it would take is a expert to calculate the actual speed.  then another to prove the video was not messed with.  From what has been told on this story, they got the OG copy of the video, so thats a slam dunk.

It would be much harder to prove he was driving, unless he did something else dumb like post it on the net saying he did it.

I'm betting he did.
