There is a point that in the 80's and 90s you could rag your cars about, as there was :-
1) less cars and traffic.
2) less speed cameras
3) no dashcams.
4) hot cars that everyone hankered for, that had less power and were slower than your grannies diesel shopper now
5) aforementioned cars that had 185/60 14 tyres on, that you could look like a rally star, at relatively low speeds.
There were still a bunch of fannies about, old gits normally that hated being burned up by some young lad in his Fiesta. But they had no real ammo to grass you up to plod, so we took the risks.
I remember I had a race car in the late 80s that I occasionally drove on the road. IN race paint and had the company who'd painted it's number on rear screen in a sticker. I saw them one day at the paint shop and they said some old tosser had called up from Bournemouth, like 150 mile away, having been overtaken by me, and they saw the car later in a car park and called the paint shop to complain. They asked how fast I was doing, and when he told them 100mph, they told them they'd have a word see if I could carry a bit more speed out the previous corner next time, and told him to fk off.
Kids still arse about in cars, the trouble is nowadays, cars are a bit boring until you get up to silly speeds indeed, whereas in the 80s, if you had 130hp in a hatchback on 185's, you were a fking king of the road!
