So you drove for 10 miles on a public road @ 120mph. These kind of actions should end the evolution vs. intelligent design debates. This is a clear example of natural selection at work.

I'm not going to get self righteous on you since I myself have clocked triple digits a couple of times on long stretches of un-inhabited highways/interstates. Like driving thru the nothingness that is Texas I clocked 135 for almost 5 miles at ike 3am.

To the point it sounds to me like what "JR-SS" said about the cavitation, once the pump spins so fast it hits pretty much what I guess you would say is a wall and it won't cool anymore yet the engine is still getting hotter. There is a similar design flaw on the SR20DET water pump because it quits effectively working at 6000rpms yet redline isn't until 7000-7200rpms. Do what the SR guys do, get and underdrive pulley!!

and who are you to call yourself an experienced driver? lol.

you are more of a tool.
no you don't you live 2hrs. north and when was the last time you drove on alligator alley?

It is a crazy road and people do drive fast from Naples-Miami because its 50mi. of road where cops virtually can't be on the side of the road because there is 2ft. of shoulder then swamp. For everyone who is thinking of "hey that would be a cool road to test my car" DONT an accident is 90ish percent fatal on that stretch of road. and if you live most likely you are food to the many gators that await your dumb *ss or your open wounds just got many of the standing water nastiness that will end your life slowly.

Wow, this is seriously the gayest thread ever.

"ZOMG ZOMG Public Roads 120 MPH??!?1?!gay!?1?!" I'd wager money that the people crying about this are on stock suspension or AGX bull****.

In conclusion, Upgrade your cooling system and underdrive your waterpump.

thats right, you only live once. but you will live longer if your not a ****ing dumbass.

go ahead, drive up on the shoulder/grass, thats a good ****ing way to get yourself killed.
