Should cars that go 100+ mph be street legal?

Spinoff of the Henry Ruggs thread. I had a conversation with someone earlier today who stated there was no reason for there to be cars on the road capable of more than 100 mph, and there's really no argument that can be made against that.

Meanwhile...we all now know what the new Corvette is capable of, and Chrysler is throwing Hellcat engines in everything possible, and the number of electric cars available with silly horsepower is constantly growing.

Is this really a good thing? Poll forthcoming!!!

I had it up to 90 one time but I felt myself starting to get sucked out of the t-tops so I slowed down.

I don't think you should limit what people are able to buy however if you want to drive your car like a race car, then you should take it to the track where everyone expects you to drive it that way.

You know what they say about men who have to drive fast cars...

How do you limit the power and still allow for towing, hauling and other vehicle uses without adding more things to go wrong and making them more expensive?

Maybe stupid people should just be paid to be neutered instead of taking down others to their level of incompetence.

had an old camaro that when it hit over 110 the engine would get killed

talk about shit yourself, get it up to 111 and the engine died which caused the steering wheel to lock. luckily it was a stick shift so pushing the clutch in and dumping it started the car right back up. ****ing terrible feature

cars should be able to go as fast as they can, if you can pay for the ticket take the ride just don't drink and drive

The car is just so well built for those speeds, it doesn't feel unnatural.
Yep, the only time my car really has to work on a consistent basis is up the steeper grades in the mountains, or else I can cruise at 80+ and it's at like 2000 RPM (well, maybe not that low).

And up I-17 where it's 75 and you're at ~85-90, it's not that hard to hit 100 when passing all of the assholes in the left lane, but other cars are 80-85+, so it's not like you're flying by (and I slow down around the trucks that are crawling up the mountain, of course).
I like how highway patrol just parks and sits on the side of every highway entering the city.

I think we should ban spoons and forks except for small ones less than a 1/2 of teaspoon or 3 small fork prongs, to keep folks from dying from obesity...

Understood.

I just don't advocate limiting competent people to the level of stupid people in any way.

We good bro!
