Places where I've hit speeds up to 46.x MPH are too numerous to keep track of. I can't think offhand of other places where I've cracked 47 MPH.

Any favored places to hit some really high speeds?

I got up to 48.5 on a downhill in Palmdale..(cant remember the name of the road)...it was great..but skeery
