I've narrowed the location based on tips and road signs so hopefully he can be caught soon before he kills someone. I have also saved the video in case he pulls it from YouTube -- thanks to a tipster for that tip too.

Thank you... very dangerous. Looks an awful lot like the midwest based on surroundings. Did not really pause to look at road signs. Doing that now.I've narrowed the location based on tips and road signs so hopefully he can be caught soon before he kills someone.

We DO NOT need software to limit speed. Rather we need people who are responsible adults.
I'd rather have a trained driver doing 155+ passing me on the freeway than someone texting and not paying attention driving at 55 mph...
The OP stated that he has training in high speed driving and was driving on a road that was about as empty as roads get. So if that's not the right circumstance to drive at the speed the manufacturer designed the car to achieve, what would be? Even a race track wouldn't give you enough room to hit 155+ mph.

Both of those situations can kill someone. I would expect a trained person to know what variables they could control and what variables are outside of their control. People don't expect to be over taken with a 100 mph difference so if someone was going to change lanes and they glanced back and saw his car off in the distance (without just staring at it) they could assume that it would be safe to change lanes when they are just a couple seconds away from an accident.The OP stated that he has training in high speed driving and was driving on a road that was about as empty as roads get.

Really? Incredibly short sighted. He’s passing multiple vehicles. What if the one texting is going so slow that the one behind him decided to pass, glances in his mirror and sees there is room to pull out, given there is an empty lane except for a car way back in the lane. You know, people are not good at judging speeds and closing rates. In fact, few even try, they just pull out. What then?
Also, distracted drivers texting are usually all over the road. It doesn’t take but a fraction af a second to have a major accident.
And to all who are pissed and want me off the road, i do feel like a fool, please stop going out of your way to destroy me. @outdoors & @Canuck put yourself in my shoes, is this what you would want to happen to yourself? and don't answer too quickly...
no one was hurt this time and you won't have to worry about it going forward...i promise.
Thanks for listening to and heeding our concerns. You have an exceedingly fun vehicle that's a hoot to drive even without putting anybody at risk.And to all who are pissed and want me off the road, i do feel like a fool, please stop going out of your way to destroy me. @outdoors & @Canuck put yourself in my shoes, is this what you would want to happen to yourself? and don't answer too quickly...

@Canuck I appreciate your concern, but please mind your own business, in your own country...
All we know is what the OP stated--that he was paying attention and watching for any other cars. The what ifs are irrelevant.
nobody was in the left lane for miles
