From Wikipedia:
Texas State Highway 130 (SH 130), also known as the Pickle Parkway, is a highway from Interstate 35 (I-35) in San Antonio along I-410 and I-10 to east of Seguin, then north as tollway from there to I-35 north of Georgetown. SH 130 runs in a 91-mile (146 km) corridor east and south of Austin. The route parallels I-35 and is intended to relieve the Interstate's traffic volume through the San Antonio–Austin corridor by serving as an alternate route.

The highway was developed in response to the tremendous surge in truck traffic on the I-35 corridor brought on by the North American Free Trade Agreement during the late 1990s, especially truck traffic originating from Laredo, where the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) reported 150 trucks entering the United States every hour. A proponent of the highway's development, Capital Area Transportation Coalition, said that congestion along the I-35 corridor is costing businesses more than $194 million a year in higher operating costs and lost productivity.

The 41-mile (66 km) section of the toll road between SH 45 and I-10 has a posted speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h), the highest posted speed limit in the Americas. As of September 2012, the only speed limits in the world higher than this are the 140 km/h (87 mph) limits of Poland, Bulgaria and Abu Dhabi, though some jurisdictions like Germany and Isle of Man have roads without any posted maximum limit.

Yeah that highway is so wide and new and well paved 85 mph seems likes your going 55mph. 100mph feels slow, the road is like, .. is that all you've got?

The only North American motorway with a European style speed limit. Most continental European countries' average speed limit is 130 KPH (81 MPH); some nations, like Poland have a speed limit of 140 KPH (87MPH) on newer stretches of motorway, &, Germany has no limit on rural stretches of the autobahn system.

This speed is near the speed of the German(West Germany when I was stationed there), Autobahn highway. Many drivers drove 100mph average speed in 1974, and some drove faster, normally in the inside lanes. The Autobahn was built for fast speeds. I drove on the highway and kept in the right lane because I did not want to drive at 100mph plus. Many drivers run over the speed limit on the interstates at 75 and 80mph.

There is a reason more highways don't have higher speed limits and it has nothing to do with safety. By posting a slow limit the cops know everyone will be speeding so they can go out and collect revenue anytime they want. I live in the country so I don't go on the interstate a lot. But even in the country there are many 55mph roads where that limit is far too low and should be 65mph. Hardly anyone actually drives 55mph all the time and I can tell you for sure the cops don't. They are out there doing at least 70 in the 55 zones because they are apparently above the law.

Drive like Hell. You'll get there. When the Kansas Turnpike was first opened in 1947, it also had an 80 MPH speed limit. It's a mere 75 now.

In fact, this road has the highest speed limit anywhere in the Americas (85 MPH = 137 KM/H) Only 6 countries (that I am aware of) have higher speed limits than the Pickle Parkway. 140 KM/H or 87 MPH: Bulgaria, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Turkey 160 KM/H or 99 MPH: United Arab Emirates Infinity: Germany (the famous Autobahn has NO SPEED LIMIT on some stretches!)

Hypothetically, I was hypothetically going a hypothetical 144 mph on a hypothetical Sunday morning hypothetically on Texas 130 back in October 2023, hypothetically. Hypothetically, it was hypothetically awesome, and hypothetically felt like I was only going a hypothetical 100 mph. Texas 130 is hypothetically a phenomenal highway for hypothetical speeding. Hypothetically speaking, of course.
