Its gonna sound pussy but....

~160 KM/H [~100 MPH]

That was in my old 323, completly stock. It was limited to 160Km/H

I never got to try a top speed run after my engine swap, the car tore 2 trannys (1 auto, 1 std) apart after only 3 wks.

I think ive gone faster than this. My Speedometer in my caprice is the crappy analog verson from the 93's and it only goes up to 140 KM/H.

The Speed limiter has been removed, and ive taken the speedometer needle till I cant even see it anymore, but I dont have anyone that will pace with me with a decent speedometer, so I have no clue

about 105 in my bird I was passing someguy and had some friends with me so I was really just dickin' around I think the gov. won't allow it to go above 120. I really don't go that fast anymore. cause I'm afraid the engines gonna blow (it's pretty much done for )

I've pushed past 110 in my supercharged Cougar, following, or at least trying to follow, some of my friends who were racing

just yesterday a guy I know got pulled over for doing 147 in a 65 in his 2000 Mustang GT... lucky he had a platinum PBA card or his license mighta been gone, he got it bumped down to 84 in a 65, then about 2 hours later the dummy got another ticket 55 in a 40, think he might have learned his lesson?

I've hit around 110-115 in my Green 98 Ram 1500 (bone stock with a 5.2 ltr engine) well over the 120 speedometer needle in my Blue 98 Ram 1500 (the one in the signature) tapped 100 in my moms Durango (2002 4.7 ltr bone stock 4X4) hit around 105 in my sister's 2000 Durango (4.7 ltr bone stock 4X4) around 105 in my best friends 93 Lightning (5.8ltr with a few bolt-ons, nothing major)

I have this addiction..... its called adrenaline, and the only way that I get massive adrenaline rushes is by going fast.....

280 kmh (175 mph) in the audi , relaxed , at night , on a long , empty and unrestricted highway in Germany...
I'm sorry , but i just couldn't resist... You must feel really pissed that other countries don't have unrestricted roads... I do too... , but luckily i live close to germany:finger:


And about 270 kph (169 mph) on a 110 (69 mph) road here in Poland ,not the smartest thing, the boost was too high , because i was still trying out different turbo settings , and it started making weird sounds so i slowed down , and this saved my license probably because there was a police patrol just when i slowed down , i consider myself really lucky with that one.

$730 that is a lot, here in NJ I believe that would be just under $200, but there are different laws, as the highest speed limit here is 65 and can only be found on the 3 major major highways in the state, everything else is 55 or lower...

126mph in a 70 at 9:00pm saturday! Not the smartest thing I've done. Now I'm getting another engine, a 383 with 550 horsepower in two weeks! Can't wait to see what she's got to offer!

raced one of my buddies down rt 495 late at night doing about 120, dropped back, gave about an 1/8 mile of space, nailed the loud pedal, and blew by at 165mph....... i'm starting to believe my friends when they tell me i've got a few nuts loose in my head...
