Will the 5 people who voted 80-84 please report to the restroom so they can have their testicles removed. It doesn't look like you'll be needing them...ever.

did 160 in a 94 supra tt w/ the blitz package. met the guy at a party after admiring his car and we went for a spin on i25 here in CO. it had plenty of juice left when we pegged it at that speed.

110 in my 91 Accord.

I feel left out. The fastest I've gone is a mere 130 or so in a 97 or 98 540i.

140 in an Eclipse. Wasn't mine or I would have gone faster. 120 in my stock 92 Jetta. About 115 in my old 77 Scirocco.

I've been at 105mph on the water in a friends jetboat.

In a Viper coupe I ran out, I stopped lookin' at the speedo after about 120.

140 no prob, in a pimp 280ZX on Minert Road 1993.

I think I may also have been around the 120+ mark on my CBR but I was too drunk to read it accurately.

0 dead luckily. (Man I was stupid back then)

I would be scared to ride the CBR at 50mph...let alone 120+...let alone when I was drunk...let alone when I was younger...let alone...

I was in my dads car at about 120 (I'm from the UK). Why are the US speed limits to low? Our freeway equivelants have a speed limit of 70mph, but everyone ignores that. How come you guys get 55?

By keeping the car I assume both you and the salesman refrained from soiling your pants...;)

I see you've never been in a Ford Festiva. My car only has 52 HP. :)
