Come to vancouver island... I drive there.

So yea it's dumb but it was a big open highway, only person I was endangering is my self. And myself was okay with the idea.

Next time just put the cable into a drill, and you can pick whatever speed you want it to show. I used to speed from time to time, but after hitting a couple deer (luckily at relatively low speed), I keep things under control. I'd hate to see what a deer could do to me at 90+ mph.

MidnightViper88 · 26th May 2011, 03:24

Alternatively, find a very slick patch of ice, and watch yourself go really, really fast without ever really going anywhere...

does the internet really need another person just now realizing that your average car's odometer is just a spin of the tool back to "just 5 miles, fresh from the plant that one is, only been driven into our doors so far"?

There is good news for you. That only works on cars where condition is more important than age or mileage anyway. Any vehicle new enough for mileage and age to matter doesn't have a manual cable-style input. It's all digital now despite still having a needle gauge, although you're right, on a lot of older vehicles, you could potentially do that. Mike's looks like one that would have a cable.

Also, for those that do have a manual cable, backwards/reverse sometimes doesn't affect the speedometer or odometer at all, and in several models it measures positive whether in reverse or forward.

Finally, even on models where drilling backwards would affect the speedometer/odometer, it would take a long, long, long time to make a significant odometer difference.

Most people who "roll back" odometers just discard the high-mileage speedometer/odometer and replace it with a used one from a wrecked car. On some old ('60s and before) vehicles you could take apart the casing without damaging it and then take apart the rollers and put them back together with whatever number you want.

true enough and yeah now that i think about it all these points are a bit more familiar than i remembered earlier, maybe the last one not so much though but it's nothing you couldn't take a wild guess at and have a decent chance with.

[edit] and honestly.... if only i knew someone with a 60's era odometer.... be one hell of a prank to set every number but the white one to 9 and maybe 8 on that while they're asleep one night. [/edit]

mike-db · 27th May 2011, 01:40

I like to drive fast.

swingdjted · 27th May 2011, 01:45

I have to agree, it is addicting. Plus, when you live in a place (for now I'm in Iowa) where all roads are straight and flat, it's hard not to speed. I have to be very careful because cops do pull people over often here, plus deer like to surprise you too.

mike-db · 27th May 2011, 03:16

Here in BC, there are a lot of turns. It makes speed even more fun!

You know you're an alright driver if you can take a 40 km/h turn at 160 km/h and live.

bumping the speed driving topic:

Think.

swingdjted · 28th October 2011, 20:49

I used to have a big problem with speeding. I almost never got caught, and when I did, it was only slightly over the limit, whereas when I didn't get caught, I was often going absurdly fast, far faster than today's electronically governed vehicles allow. Even to this day I still buy vehicles with far more horsepower than necessary just for the acceleration, but luckily I've now grown to where I accelerate to the speed limit or a hair over and then back off. I've also found that I can use the extra power for more towing freedom, which can be handy.

Oh, and just to stay on topic of the "Oh noes!" thread:
