155 mph on a public highway is incredibly dangerous and totally unacceptable. At those speeds you could kill a whole family in a blink of an eye and it should not be condoned or promoted. I think that video should be removed as it may encourage others to try the this in their own vehicle. Reckless endangerment is far from being "cool" or even interesting. It is criminal.

Man we're all grown adults here...people are gonna do what they do.
So you guys are saying cause theres a video of someone running from a cop and gets away.
Now more people are gonna try and run when they see blue lights????

Lmao if these people are that one track minded to copy these videos thats there own fault....

I mean i agree 155mph is very dangerous but this thread is post videos doing dumb stuff in your ls

The videos are on youtube guys so taking them off of this site will not stop people from seeing them and just because someone does something and records it does not mean everyone else is going to go out and do it. I think that video is awesome not because he is going 155+ mph but because the engine held together and rode smooth at that speed! What an incredible machine! If your so easily influenced to outrun the cops or go 160mph just because some idiot did it on youtube then you probably shouldnt be allowed to own a car in the first place.

The car is lowered, on wheels, and has a aftermarket exhaust. In the video it says he ran through a spike strip and kept going so he had to have run flats. I think its funny that an ls400 can outrun a police interceptor that easily! Not that you can outrun the radio or a chopper but the cops really need to step there game up with the increasing hp or your everyday car.

He must've been caught eventually though, otherwise how would he have got a hold of the police video?

Can't say i get the Negative camber thing, i would be interested to see what the cars would do if you tried to avoid a bunny...

Now POSITIVE camber is hilarious! i had a freind who ghetto-rigged his lift on his truck, and it actually looked very similar to this:. that is, before he lost control and crashed it.

When it did snow I decided to attempt to do some slow mph drifts in "2" lets just say I like the steering angle the ls400 has.
