That is a beautiful stretch of highway. Though I have heard tale of people getting tickets when they get off. They randomly check times when and where you got on the turn pike and calculate time vs distance. Don't know how true it is, never happened to me.
I don't know, as long as the stretch is completely empty, and the road is in good shape, a little sprint isn't too bad of a sin. Considering these cars are designed to handle speeds well above 140, and most (not all) but most of us who drive them have more aptitude than the average driver.
In other words, if dying in a firery car crash is the way you want to go, more power to ya, just don't involve anyone else in your personal blaze of glory.
