The trans am and a coupla others such as the GTOs are in the group too.  Sooner or later they will see the light!  One of the GTO drivers actually just got a 95 GT so its all good! Grin

There isn't one. Though you are encouraged to be responsible.

Hence the responsible bit. I don't think the police are all to tolerant of people like in the video.

Course there are nuts like that all over the world. But doing that just for the sake of it ain't really useful. Especially when you're taking up all the lanes.

Looks like fun, good to see Ford guys in other parts of the world (I use to own a used '93 SVT Cobra, and I am toying with the notion of getting a 04 Cobra)

Good choice of music too Wink

Although the autobahns in Germany are not subject to an overall speed limit (the blue speed limit signs, usually showing 130kmh(81 mph), are advisory  maximum speeds  for good road, weather, and traffic conditions), many stretches of autobahn are covered by signed speed limits, which are mostly closely observed by the Germans.

Speed limits are implemented rigorously. Radar traps are frequent and heavy on-the-spot fines can be levied.

Not an issue for a truck thats limited to 56MPH, however.
