A new speed record
A new speed record, but not a good one
Fri Nov 2, 10:29 AM ET


Olympique Lyon's Czech forward Milan Baros was caught speeding at 168 miles per hour in his Ferrari, a club source confirmed Friday.
Local newspaper Le Progres quoted police as saying the former Liverpool player had broken the record for speeding for that French region, set by a motorcyclist who reached 154 mph in 2000.
Baros was driving on a motorway not far from Lyon on Thursday when he was caught by French police, who confiscated the black Ferrari and took his driving license.
The 26-year-old, sidelined by an injury, had to take a taxi back to Lyon. He faces a heavy fine and a three-year driving ban.

Fastest I ever went was around 160+. I was doing the ride along at Daytona Speedway with the Richard Petty experience. That was fun.

Last week, I got one of my clients driving school plus a non-moving violation for 120 in a 65. FREE. You probably make more than $196 a week, so I can't help you Mike
