    The 200 mph barrier is hallowed ground to all of hoonkind. If your speedometer crosses this mark, you have reached speeds that most only dream about. You need a special car, a special road, and a special set of … well, you know where I am going. Billy Everyteen and his 1994 Civic hatchback are…
