Sh*t!!! You got me by 2mph! Did it in an F40 on 280 south of S.F. Used to routinely hit 170. That's why I have an H2 and not something fast. off-roading is much better than chain-ganging.

Drtyfn isn't that section of 280 made to go fast. I used to live up there and have hit speeds of 160 on several occasions.

Darn I never thought about this. I wonder if my health insurance would pay for the Night vision if my Doc says I can't see at night.. I 'm just joking. but you never can tell.. Mike<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by DocH2:
At over $3k I find it a bit pricey. It does take care of the smaller pupils problem with age and the associated night vision problems but the cost/reward factor still makes me want to drive just a little slower when the sun goes down rather than pony up the dough.

Wholesale price might be worth it though. Can't be more than $800 in parts.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I test drove the h2 with the night driver at the moab hummer club event it was prety cool drove it at 55 mph and you could see very clear it uses thermal imaging not infrared like most others

kdio,
Yeah baby!!! 280 is still one of my favorite personal speedways. I used to get on at Black Mountain northbound and look very carefully over at the southbound side for hidden bacon(they usually hid by the Caltrans fenced thing on the side of the highway), then take the Skyline exit, turn around somewhere safe(haha, safe while talking about 3xlegal limit speeding) merge back onto 280 southbound while looking for CHP lurking in the lanes behind me. Then as soon as I was pretty sure it was clear I'd hammer it all the way back to either Black Mt or head down for another exit or two, depending on how bad my speed jones was.
If I made a run and didn't bump the rev limiter on which ever car was being flown it wasn't a successful run.
I had that piece of highway so scoped out I knew exactly when traffic would be thin enough to make a run. I was so bad I would go down to the CHP HQ in Redwood City and figure out when they would change shifts. The buggers used to stagger shift changes. Never did get a ticket on 280. Did get a good one on the Bay bridge at 2am once. Not only the ticket, but I got spanked by a monster twin turbo Supra.
