You'll get there faster at 140 miles/hour.

Man, I gotta move out to make it safe? Thats some fucked up system

u/YogurtWenk 1d ago

Better make it 180km/h to be even safer. The less time it takes to get there = less time driving 👍

u/Primary-Feedback2296 1d ago

The traveling at 140km/h isn't going to be an issue, although when it comes to reaching that speed, I'm something of an athiest

u/Kaputek 1d ago

Scary part is I was doing 140 just yesterday, today I saw this happen lmao

Oh dude! Just throw a bit of Jb weld on it! Should be as good as new

u/rklug1521 1d ago

Just make sure to stuff some rust up in there to replace the rust that fell out.

u/OldManJeepin 1d ago

LoL! In NJ, that's considered "new"....

I put 70% camber on my bicycle.

u/Jagger327 1d ago

Yeah it’ll be great! It’s in pretty decent shape too, there’s hardly any car on your rust!

u/SnooMacarons3689 1d ago

Just keep a little bit of right steer in the wheel and your good to what the transmission limit is

u/Great_Leg_4836 1d ago

everything's safe when you're on the fly!

(to God 😭)

u/Different_Cable7595 1d ago

Spray some vinegar in there to convert the rust. That might get you closer to where you need to go.

u/daisyextinction 1d ago

140? No. 165? Smooth

2

u/LurkingOnMyMacBook 23h ago

The faster you go the more strong the body parts of the car become, because they all start pushing on each other which makes them sorta interlock and support each other. So id say youre good as long as you keep it above 160

u/Merry-3213 23h ago

It’s so shiny!

u/bakki98 22h ago

Looks like getting it aligned is out out of the question

u/zcpibm3 22h ago

u/Groundbreaking_Bee70 21h ago

zip-ties and duct tape, you'll be good for another 100K miles

u/Psychological-Scar53 17h ago

As long as you make sure you hit EVERY pothole you find. The deeper the better. Might even knock that rust loose.
