Most likely trees, a rockface, or the bottom of a slope.

All my vehicles are subject to Newton's Law, so if I enter a curve even at only 100 mph (which comes quickly at nearly full throttle) that the car is capable of doing 60 mph through, something has to give.

By now you really should know that straight roads are as common as stoplights and EVs around here. Okay, there are a select few places where getting up to 160 or so is doable, but those are the exception.
Is it that perilous.....or...(wait for it:giggle::giggle::giggle:)...are you growing a Vagina..:oops::oops::oops:;)

This isn't some Godforsaken corner of New York, or somewhere in Kansas or Florida, pal.

There are hills here in the Rockies and the roads have to conform to the terrain accordingly by being curvy. Yet many are still quite steep. Sure, you can usually double the speed through the ones with 10, 15, 35, or 45 mph signs, but there are still physical limits to what a car can do.

Maybe you have roundabouts over there, which could be seen as a very condensed version of a curvy road. If so, try going through one at 100 or so. On the positive side, when you fail you might end up in a hair salon, which is much better than a 500' sheer drop off.

Nearly. 60 is doable for some.:sneaky:

Yeah, with you driving. But imagine an elderly New Yorker used to going straight between stoplights trying it.
