The speed limits are based on the population in that county..
Alot of west countys have 80mph limits now so there already running 85-90..

Im with Scott on the street racing. From a 50 punch if it not winning chances are slim to nun that u will win by 85mph. Unless u have 2.73 gears and a huge turbo

Speed limit wiki
News link

Im willing to bet its just the 18 or so counties that have a speed limit of 75 or greater in west tx...

And if anybody here has driven on i10 or i20 in west tx doin 90 would make the boring azz trip seem alot shorter

There's a hall in Houston but I'll probably keep shipping out of LA so living near a hall is not necesasry. I've been looking for Warehouses and abandoned factories already! Just not in Texas yet, maybe I'll start looking, need to figure out a city first!

My best friend growing up wants to move to Austin next year after he get's back from his current tour in Dirka Dirka land and wants me to join him. I already decided on selling my place by the beach here in L.A at the end of the year. There's a possiblity that I might be making a move out there depending on how things turn out.

I can honestly say after growing up in Texas my entire life that the central Texas area is the best. And it puts you directly in the center of Dallas and Houston then the beach is a little under 3 hours away but when hurricanes come we are far enough away just to have hurricane parties and not worry about any real damage. You and lee need to come it here and I'll show you around, I already convinced Kyle to move down here from Wyoming. He will be down hee end of May
