Yeah, that happens a lot when it comes to top speed. Who's got the cast iron balls right?

What kind of poseur drives a 996 and chickens out in a top speed stand off? I swear... too many rich fakers out there without a sense of thought for what the Porsche emblem stands for.

i've had my 89lude si up to 136, which is pretty much the limit by gears... redline is 6800, and the gearing for 130 is 6500rpm... do the math... this was from some old fucker in a taurus sho that got pissed at me cuz i pulled the 100mph fly by, so he tried catchin me, but he let off at 120... and i kept goin... hehehe

the other car worth noting is my mom's then new villager, which i drove when i was sixteen... had it up to 120, and the bitch was solid... granted, it is a maxima w/ a van on it... so it handles awesome, but it was really solid...

Hi all, am i the only UK speedfreak here?

I've driven plenty of cars fast but the fastest was 145mph in an old Jenson Intercepter, took awhile to get there cos the thing must have weighed like 2 ton . solid car, big ass engine and the fuel gauge went like a rev counter , at best the thing did like 8 miles to the gallon and thats when they were new. Car i have now is a stock UK Spec Mazda 626 2.0L GXI. I asked Mazda the Bhp and they told me 138Bhp which is cool, a real sleeper. Last night did 124mph which upset the Merc E300 that lost his bottle at 115 ish No cops Thankgod:sun:

UK laws are bad for taking away your license for getting caught doing over 100 so i was lucky ( so why do i keep doing it )

I Lived in Germay for a few years. NO SPEED LIMITS :smoker2: but thats another story.

Well I am a young fucker in a taurus sho, and I wouldn't have let off. Where are you from, I have raced a little honda on the freeway once, but it must not have been you, because he let off at about 115. I kept going to see what the taurus could do- got up to about 141-3. Didn't feel like I was going over 50mph.

Got my Caprice up to around 180Km/h (I'm just guessing here.). Now don't laugh because the speedometer only goes up to 140Km/h, and the needle was completly buried. [I couldnt even see it at all ] It made me feel like I was flying cause of burying the needle, but the car did pull for quite a while, and i know the 305ci 5.0L will do about 160Km/h, (limited I think) and mine is a 350ci 5.7L with the limiter removed, so im just guessing. I was gonna get a friend to come beside me in there car but most of my other friends wouldnt be able to hang with me with there slow-ass trucks and lower geared cars.

I can remember the days of fun when it used to be me and my best friend in my old Mazda 323 1.6L going down a really long, sloping hill on the highway with a tailwind and me flooring it, and the car just screaming, it was shaking lots and we were barely doing over 140Km/h. Its no wonder that car bagged out :smoka:

There are old(er) merc's that are 300. I have seen them parked, so I'm sure they exist.

Jensons are monsters! Didnt they have American V8's?? And you british people are really under-powered. Sorry, its true. Here 138hp would get you laughed at. But you do handle better and are generally more fun to drive.


Oh, I might be getting an 88 Prelude. Its a long story, but if I do get it, it will be totally free! We'll see.

Fastest I've driven is 140kph, not bad considering I'm 15 (no license).
