Poll: What's the fastest you have personally driven?

[dethman]

135ish on I5 from LA to SF.

 

[psydancerqt]

95

 

[NutBucket]

Uhm, either 115 or 120 in the car found in the sig.

 

[SgtBuddy]

128MPH GPS measured in a Dodge Neon ACR. It took about 6 minutes to get up there.

 

[sobriquet]

132 MPH on I-5 on the stretch just north of the SD/Orange County line.

 

[johnjosh]

fastest will have to say 130 and will never go that fast again, a car that i was following lost control and barel was able to avoid hitting it, after that i never got close to 130

 

[LeetestUnleet]

I hit 110 in my '83 Ford LTD Brougham with a 3.8 V6
Too bad it's totaled now due to some stupid stoned immgrants with no car insurance. Now I drive (temporarily) a '87 Oldsmobile Delta Eighty-Eight with a 3.1 that barely hits 85.

 

[horhey]

about 125+ in my stock 87 Camaro IROC-Z. and i dont think i will do it again

Seatbelts wouldn't have made much difference if you wrecked a ragtop Vette at that speed anyway.

 

[aircooled]

120

 

[Loggerman]

1975 FORD TORINO--X-cop car,buried the needle @160,so may of been closer to 170.

They'd just finished the Upper Levels , here in Vancouver.(1977,new blacktop)

 

[skyking]

Recently? 95MPH, and then the main tires lifted off the runway............

125- 130 in a '66 mustang, and it was feeling a bit squirrely.

 

[TechnoKid]

130mph...that was pretty fast.

 

[gunblade]

100MPH on the I-5 from LA back to SJ.

I think I was just following the flow of traffic.

Never intended to go over 95MPH since I can't afford any raise in insurance.

 

[JBT]

135 in my old Nissan Stanza that thing was fugly but it went good.

 

[StageLeft]

Not as fast as I'd like. Way too many cops in Alabama for my comfort.

 

[edmundoab]

didnt want to go really fast with the camry I drive,
100 mph, thats about it

 

[OverVolt]

There's no where i can speed in the Maryland/DC area, so i dont. Cops are everywhere out here, but the fastest ive gone it prolly around 85mph, traffic is always bad around here too!

 

[SSibalNom]

in my old car,
135 on the 2fwy @ 2am
140 on the 5 south in pendleton area, that took a while to get up to

 

[daniel1113]

137MPH in my 2002 Volkswagen Jetta. I was only at about 3500, so I am sure I could hit 155 or so, but I haven't had the chance... yet

 

[DrPizza]

Ummm, 85ish? Maybe 87 or 88? And, I'd bet 1/2 of the other posted speeds are lies.

Would you like to get in my car with me? I will show you it's no lie.

 

[hytek369]

probably no more than 78mph. not a risky guy

 

[SarcasticDwarf]

speedometer maxed at 120, but I was probably going 130 or so on I-10 outside of Phoenix.

<---never plans on doing that again.

 

[OCNewbie]

I was on the "Greenway" here in the Orlando area a few years back in my 93 Dodge Dakota V8. I was doing around 85 or 90, when I see this car coming strong in my rear view. Was late at night (was only car on the road), the headlights looked like a cop so I started to get worried..... then it zoomed by me, and I noticed it was an Impala SS (newer one with LT1 engine), and I gunned it. I got to my speed limiter of about 110 on the speedo, and the Impala must have been doing a good 20 or more faster than me as it just left me in the dust heh =)

Fastest I've been as a passenger is like 130-135 in my friend's 92 Trans Am Covertible (top up).
