I did that in my '68 years ago.  Left a campground to go to the store in the
dark (probably for more beer), got on Highway 101 and at 45 mph the noise
finally tipped me off.  Lucky I didn't rip the canvas to shreds.

*It did seem a bit sluggish once I got to 45 mph, but that's as fast as I
was going.  It was night time, going from my folks' house to a friend's
along countryish roads.  Got to my destination, turned back to shut the door
and almost had a heart attack.
