      I know youre joking but that is something they should actually think about. Cars like an S6 are actually driven at those speeds quite regularly. There will be limits to how much you can do against wind noises though. I'm actually quite surprised that he was mentioning wind noises that crazy as I have driven cars like an S6 at 150mph before and wasnt experiencing any concerning noise at all. Though I have absolutely no idea how much impact those 10 mph will have.

      I honestly think these records are no longer impressive at all and need to stop before one of these morons gets killed in a fireball explosion when they crash that stupid car loaded with tanks of gasoline flying down the highway at 150mph. This is **not even hard to do** , and it's not even that hard to get away with. You just have to be rich, have a giant ego, and have a certain lack of empathy for others around you, which I despise.
      Sorry to be negative but every cannonball guy I've ever seen is the definition of a spoiled, white privelaged, absolute beta male, who thinks bragging about getting away with committing felonies somehow makes you cool. They're wasting the time of law enforcement and putting everyone in danger, all for what, so they can go drink craft beer with their other rich friends and brag to eachother about it? The biggest reason why I don't respect these records whatsoever....THEY'RE NOT RUNNING FROM ANYTHING!! NOBODY IS TRYING TO CATCH YOU!!
      This is just simply not that hard to do, the **only risks** are getting caught committing a felony while doing it, and of course, death, because you're driving a literal gasoline bomb down the road at 150. Getting away with committing felonies, then bragging about it on the internet, doesn't make you cool it makes you very very dumb. That's what these guys are doing, they're just waving it in everyones face saying "I CAN GET AWAY WITH BREAKING THE LAW BECAUSE I'M SO SMART AND COOL." it has **nothing to do with cars** , it had everything to do with these guys EGOS
      THIS IS NOT HARD TO DO. WE NEED TO STOP PROMOTING THESE GUYS BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS KILLED. IT'S NOT ABOUT CARS IT'S ABOUT THEIR FRAGILE LITTLE EGO.
      I'm sure Doug Tabbut will say "oh look another pearl clutcher", and that's the thing, anyone who calls him out on his BS, he just has the atttitude, of "Well I guess you guys just aren't as cool as me." What they're doing isn't hard to do, it's not impressive, it's complete beta male BS.
      I'm not impressed that you strapped a bunch of extra gas tanks to an Audi and went flying across the country using spotters during a global pandemic where you know law enforcement has MUCH BETTER THINGS TO DO, than deal with you guys, I think you need to stop this whole escapade and stick to producing content about CARS instead of producing content about your rich friends who do beta male things in their spare time.
      I seriously hope the next person who attempts this record gets caught and thrown in jail.
      I stopped watching your channel because it's not about CARS, it's about a bunch of losers who think they're cool trying to impress people with old stories they've told at parties a billion times before. But no matter where I go on car forums, this dumb stuff about you guys strapping gas tanks into a trunk and going 175 on public roads keeps popping up.
      The only people who respect this record are little ignorant teenagers.

      @@treycen2785 Come on! My commuter car in most of 2021, each way 52 km, was a 4.0 Boxster. Great fun, and probably quite a step or two better than an S6. I have a slightly modded 105 series Alfa Coupé now, not as fast but twice as funny to drive - not a single boring Nanny system, raw, direct, loud and honest. Commuting is a boring, time-shredding chore, so it should be done with the car that can give You the most fun on Your daily way to work, right? Commuting in an S6 would even enable You to drop the kids on the way, something a Boxster can only do with one kid at a time, pretty much like the 105 series Bertone, too.
      I have the very nice advantage to live and commute in Germany, which makes it less of a chore and more of an adrenaline shot, better than any coffee money could buy.
      A lot of balding branch managers and confidential clerks commute with an S6 and drop their kids on the way. So, if that does not make it a commuter car, I don't know what would.
