Default Record Breaking!!!

I did not really know where to put this.

AND I KNOW, IM AM VERY STUPID FOR DOING THIS!!

Okay, so I went to MIAMI for the weekend, and I was borrowing my bro's Armada, so I was missn the 350z for 5 days. So Im taking the Armada back to his house just of CR54.

So I decided to do some driving, because I like speed. So I decided to time myself on the stop watch in the 350, from CR54 exit to the Brandon Exit!! Just to let you know the roads were empty, there were a few cars, but everything was good.

So I made it in 13.37 Minutes!!!!

And Im wondering if anyone has timed anything of the sort before.

My previous time was 11 min from Brandon Exit to the LandoLakes exit.

Driving back from Tallahssee with a friend in his '86 LX 5.0 we both farted and burped similtaneously at the same time! it was amazing! What a fluke!
its rare to fart AND burp at the SAME TIME, much less two people accomplishing this feat identically.....that had to be some sort of record too.

haha where do you live? i have gotten from the gibsonton/riverview exit to the L.o.L exit in about 14-16 in at like 530am....i bet we could do better at like 3am...

i drove from tropicana field to exit 250 on i-75 last night at like 3am....no one was on the road...i was too tired to speed excessively but i still wasnt goin the speed limit...if a cop pulls you over for speeding while no one else in on the road would you be pissed? i fuckin would

Dallas to Lubbock, Texas 297 miles - 3 hours and 5 minutes and that included a gas/piss stop. 1985 Mustang Cobra

Nashville to Atlanta 110 miles 91 minutes flat - my current car - Porsche 911. and still averaged 24mpg...

I did alligator alley (about 80 miles) in just over an hour - 3 oclock in the morning with the top down. The stars are really cool at that time of night - almost unreal.

Which way did you go? I-4 to I-95, Plant City to J-ville is only ~3 hrs doin the speed limit (check yahoo maps if you like).

Ive done Clearwater to Fernadina Beach (just NE of J-ville) in just under 4 hrs. I-275 to I-75, jumped over to US301 up to J-ville (even slowed down to go through Waldo).

Done Clearwater to Miami in just under 3hrs (family emergency)....
