219mph on a Phoenix freeway

Video shows Lamborghini going 219 mph on Loop 202 - ABC15.com: Phoenix, Arizona News, Weather, Radar, Breaking News, Traffic and Web Cams
Check out this video & tell us what you think.
I'm moving back to the part of Phoenix where these a$$holes were "playing" .
My wife & myself will be driving that same stretch of road soon.
I'd like to take a ball bat to the drivers and dowse the car in gas & torch it.
Here's the raw video:

but honestly, they were doing this on a stretch of road thta was nearly abandoned at that time and when cars were around they slowed down. its not like they were racing through traffic.
im just saying, they werent being stupid about it, im not oging to lie ive hit 140 plenty of times and ridden in a car at 170 on public roads. yes its unsafe to the people in the car but nobody else was in danger here

Hispeed was my radio call sign...in the air...
"when cars were around they slowed down"
What do you figure they slowed down to. 120,150?
" they werent being stupid about it"
I won't even reply to that one.

I know where it came from, he's staying low, but wasn't 219, more like 198 lol Lambo's have speedo's that are way off. Not saying anything further . This is why you have to be careful with video's and why even in the Viper having fun never did a vid, cops get wind of it, they'll track down the person. Reminds me of Japan, F40 owner went balls out on the highway with traffic with a video recorder inside, the video got around, eventually cops tracked down the owner and arrested him.

Complete idiots to do this on a public road, as said above even when they "slowed down" they were still putting other peoples lives in danger...

These guys are perfect candidates for natural selection, my only hope is they dont take others down in the process..

It wasn't me. From the video it didn't look like he was going anywhere near that speed.

You know you are correct, shouldn't the white dotted line be solid at 219mph??

I am sure you would save that for the track, right gary???

Like I said, Lambo speedo's are way off, gps at high speeds shows huge difference between accurate vs indicated speeds.

ummm...ehhh....guys I've "heard" of tested with GPS on "enclosed course" , sometimes a 15 mph difference or more at those "indicated" speeds. All speedo's are off, BMW and Lambo's are outta-wack at high speeds though lol.
