heh the fastest Iv ever gone was riding in a Nissan Maxima. doing 90-100 in the HOV lane of Interstate 85 going THROUGH Atlanta with the other lanes crawling. yes it was stupid. no I wasnt drving. yes we did get there in time for the game 😛

fastest Iv ever driven was 80, course that was with my mom. Dont feelt he need to go any faster.
 
well the speedo on my car tops at 125.... And it was a camaro v6 that I put a v8 350 that was very built up..... The cops say I was going so fast they could not rader me and I beat a twin turbo nissan 300zx like he was a POS even when I would slow down to 90 and spped up he could not get past me. The cop wrote paced at 115 on my ticket but since my speedo went to 125 and it was past that and bouncing off the milage reset peg I know that it was not right lol. My Probe GT has gotten to 130 so far. Have many more mods to do still though.
 
120-125 in an '85 Escort GT, believe it or not. 😛

Was racing along with a car that had a speedometer that went up that high (mine went to 85), and after a few miles, he got in front of me, and held up his fingers: 1-2-0 or 1-2-5 (was 14 years ago, so it's hard to remember which).

I don't do crazy ass stuff like that anymore. I got old.
 
110-115 at the nice straightaway we have around here in my 2001 Focus.

120 with Overdrive off though 😀

You got caught driving at 115mph?! :Q
Didn't you get arrested and get charged with a misdemeanor?
 
Pegged the 155mph speedo in my sister's Trans-Am taking my date home after prom a couple of years back. It was on Highway 36 that runs straight across the northern part of Kansas. It was through the small town of Baileyville (which actually sits kinda off to the side). Luckily there was no train crossing through at that time of the morning (and the road was deserted). Also, luckily no fvcking deer decided to go jumping out in front.
 
I got one of those "your speed is" radar trailers to say I was going 11 mph while on my bicycle.

Besides, I don't speed.
 
~100 in my parent's old crappy lincoln towncar and old buick wagon (both had 5.0 v8's, and the buick was especially crappy). Actually the speedometer in the buick only went up to 85, but you could more or less tell. In my new car (mitsubishi diamante) I've only gone about 90. Actually I don't like speeding at all anymore, especially with all the zero tolerance days here. Just today on my short drive back from school I saw 5 chp patrol cars and 2 chp helicopters out ticketing people.
