What is your topspeed using a hyundai?

What are you talking about? NLEX going to Valenzuela...

Oh kala ko paout of town ka

[bratski]

flashing your headlight is not really a good practise lalo na sa gabi. ako madali ring ma hyblad sa mga ganoon. this happened to me once sa may nlex viaduct going to manila. it was already past 9 pm so wala nang truck ban kaya pila na ang mga trucks sa slow lane. i was in the fast lane ang may isang hinayupak na crosswind na nag fla-flash sa likod ko. alam na ngang wala akong pupuntahan tuloy tuloy pa rin ang pag flash. dahil hindi naman ako pwedeng magmabilis pa pumunta na ako sa slow lane at pinagbigyan ko na. punta ako ngayon sa likod niya at ako naman ang nag flash sa kanya. pansin ko na lang huminto na siya sa pag flash sa nasa unahan niya. grrrr kakainis! sori kung OT ha

same here, as long as nasa speed limit ako (100kph) sa nlex.even if im at the overtaking lane, pag wala naman akong matatabihan hindi talaga ako tumatabi kahit mapagod siya mag flash ng lights niya.

[roberto_minosa]

^Good point. Hindi naman makakareklamo yung nasa likod kasi 100km/h lang talaga ang speed limit. Pero pag nababagalan ako sa nasa harap ko, naghahanap na lang ako ng ibang lane na maluwag. Ayoko na ilawan. Tutal makukulit din yung ibang nasa overtaking lane. Maluwag na nga sa kanan, ayaw pa rin tumabi kahit mabagal.

Hyundai SF 4x2 crdi,.,.i did 195Kph on star toll way,.,.,when i saw the speedometer closing to 200kph i decided to let go of the accelerator,,.,.kasi parang kayang kaya pa kahit lagpas 200kph pa,.,.i dont think its still safe.,.,now whenever i drive our SF the fastest speed i'm doing is until 160kph only for me its safer pero sa star toll lang un,can't do it in Slex until the construction is finished hehe,.,.,atleast now i know na that our SF has more to give when we needed it.,.,.,

drive safely guys..,.

Picture naman diyan na kaya sumipa ng lampas 200kph mga SF naten.

IMHO flashing to high beam is a preventive measure and a way of informing the oncoming or vehicle in front of you to be aware of your presence. Subjective kasi yan. May mga nag flashers just for the sake na gusto nila humarurot na wala namang available lane. That happened to me in the wee hours of last week at q.ave. A silver Nissan Patrol 3.0L was flashing me starting from Q.ave cirlce hanggang nandun na kami sa ilalim ng q.ave underpass kaya nagtataka ako kung baket ako ang flina flash niya ng multiple times eh free naman yung katabing lane? So after 10 seconds of tailing me with continous flashing eh iniwan ko na siya, he was doing 160kph+ I was doing almost 200kph. Dun ko siya iniwan sa ilalim kasi clear ang visibility ko na walang obstruction or mga taong tumatawid kaya safe to go at speed.

On the other hand may times na justified ang pag flash mo like these scenarios:

1) may mga trust-fund kids sa Guilys na hinihinto lang mga auto nila erpat and ermat sa gitna ng kalsada just to show off their riced out civic or lancers. Problem is that they feel like they own the road at parang walang mga naka hilerang mga sasakyan sa likod nila and worse, Audi Q7 ko ang haharangan nila!

2) may mga mababagal magpatakbo sa high way. Train of thought nila na if you drive below 50kph eh that's considered "safe driving" pero ang alam ko nga sa high way eh minimum 60kph.

3) mga lane hoggers. Those drivers who use two lanes at sa gitnang white grid line sila pumupwesto.

4) those who use their cellphones while driving. Kitang kita mo sila kaya you either honk or high beam them. There were a few times na biglang prepreno sila or pag katabi mo sila or if you're beside them they're not aware na they're starting to swerve.

The using of horns and high beam is a passive safety feature of your vehicle. It's actually a preventive measure. That's the reason why it's there.

well I feel the opposite way. Actually I have beaten 3 Santa Fe already in NLEX. Isa yung maangas na tumitingin pa tapos iiwan ka na akala mo kayang kaya kang iwanan pero in the end siya pala ang iniwan ko. nung pinauna ko na hindi na makatingin siguro sa hiya na niya... hehehe

second yung nag flash ng lights. What I shared in my previous post...

third yung may sticker na Tsikot.com sa likod. nakikipag unahan sa akin. in the end naiwan din...

bottomline, wala yan sa pamahalan ng kotse. nasa performance na iyan at sa driver. :-)

peace

[roberto_minosa]

^Yep, although the Santa Fe is a fast car and for any fast car for that matter, it still boils down to how firm the driver's knees are. Come to think of it, I've pwn3d much lighter (and cooler) cars than our own. But this is off-topic.

guys race on the proper place. public roads are not suppose to be our playgrounds.

last sunday sa star tollway doing 160 sa tucson 4x2 gas matic. okies naman siya. no worries

[C#@RD]

me 110kph sa c5 with my I10 kulang din sa roads. pero nakaka takot na.

Kabarkada ko naka crv first gen may nakipag karera sa kanyang I10 na blushing red sa south super highway, 160kph na takbo niya sumasabay pa daw yung I10 4 pa daw sakay. sabi ko baka naka mod sabi niya stock daw, umabot na siya 180kph pero bumubuntot pa daw sa kanya.

[roberto_minosa]

^It was probably drafting.

[glenn_sp]

180+kph on a starex grx crdi a/t at sctex (sbma bound) last year. testing lang kung kaya.

160kph sa nlex (open system) pag late na. minsanan lang yun.

100-120 lang ako lagi sa nlex.

[axel]

170 kph po sa star tollway around 8pm sa batangas sa '07 Getz CRDI namen.. flat out na un, pedal to the metal na talaga, ayaw na yta mg accelerate pa.. pero one time parang kaya pa nya tumulin, naubos lang ang kalsada kc traffic na ahead.
180 kph naman sa '08 Kia Rio namen, star tollway din around 9 am.

[kimika]

IMO i can call it a race only if you have a deal sa kasabay mo..kasi kung talagang race yan dapat may certain distance kayo di ba? Second pwedeng makipag race sya sa inyo for a short distance lang but ist not enough.. maybe may sakay syang family member nya na ayaw nya madamay sa aksidente..hinay hinay lang po tayo at walang trophy or cash incentive tayong makukuha mauna man tayo but int the end sa traffic mag papang abot pa rin tayo

[rheopectic]

180 at skyway-1999 hyundai coupe fx. nkakatakot, di ko na uulitin un!

[streetsweep]

155kmh using hyundai tucson at sctex

[Rei_BuGz]

cruise speed 130 kmh, hindi ko pa sinubukan eh top speed..
medyo unstable, paayos ko muna..

[GTi]

We don't have a Hyundai, but we do have a family friend who owns a 2000 Starex Club. We were coming back from Baguio then, and there was still no SCTEx at that time. It was filled to brim with passengers inside and all their luggage were strapped on the roof and covered with a canvas. The best it could muster was 140km/h, according to the driver todo apak na daw yun. Of course out of courtesy hindi namin inovertake so sinama namin at 140km/h with the Trooper at a low 2500rpm habang siya nasa bandang redline.

200kph at SCTEX using my Sonata YF
