When you start the car the gauges all bounce to the max then back down. Sort of an electronics test the car does each time. The video was slowed down to make it look real. I didn't have my speakers on so I never heard the sound.

How did I do it, Its only a little 95 LT4 grandsport ram air firebird

[Ms. AntiVenom]

Daym the sound didnt work. I was going WoooooHoooo

I was tuning the speedo, and was actually going about 30MPH

Ok,the secret is out,Yes that was my vette and yes I did hit 200mph.

And this is how I did it,first off I never did say I was on a road.I did it for fun and just to see it on video.

The pictures we're taken when you turn the key one,which by the way is hard to do,getting the photo when it hit 200 was hard,I took over 25 photos to get that one,They video is not slowed down or speed up,they sounds we're added,just for effects.

I had jacked up the rear and took of the traction control and off she went,slowly up to 200mph,all the temps and pressure we're fine,no damage done.I thought it was cool.I get bored and start to tinker with things,Mary won't let me take apart anymore.

Thanks for all the guesses,
