95 in my 1995 Nissan Sentra.... still pretty smooth ride at that speed. would've tried to go faster, but the fear of cops stopped me... got a ticket couple months back already.

THERE IS NO WHERE IN NEW YORK WHERE I CAN GO ANY FASTER.

well, no where that i've been so far.

I hit about 140 or so in my 1986 Porsche. For all the money, it was really a dog!

Oh, that was on I-85 in Western Virginia. A semi deadheading South hit about 90 in the right hand lane, blowing his horn and laughing the whole time. Wish I'd had a cb. Darn. :(

Don't drive fast. Anything over 45 is too fast for all of us. Look what happened to poor Earnhardt! Speed kills.

1. Thorn in his Z @188MPH
2. Me in the Supra @ 180MPH
3. ? Haven't gone though them all again...


3. Quag. on Ducati 916 @ 176. I didn't notice anything between 180 and 176

I found a 93 Supra TT with 91000 miles and a supposed Dino @ 470HP for $11950. I could afford it, but I would kill myself :) It's in Auto trader if you are interested.

In high school in my dad's Toyota Celica I did 130 mph on what's called "county line road" near my town.

Myself not driving and just being in the car, 160ish in a porsche 911. On of my friend's dad owned it, and let us take it out for the weekend. All I know is that the telephone polls looked like they were one big connected fence when they were going by that fast.

52 on my mountain bike

if you did that off-road, then you have my deepest admiration

I used to have one of those cyclocomputers on my mtn bike, and I know how fast scary is, and 52 is well above that

that's definitely scarier than when I did 150 on my GSXR750 on pavement
