Personally, 115 in my Accord.

In an old friend's Firebird, ~155.

127 - Speedo pegged at 115, HUD showed 127 .... and then I ran out of highway

176 - as a passenger in a friends car.

Stealth Edit: Both were GTPs

Saying that, I've gone 115MPH in my car (measured by GPS - showing 120 on speedo), ONCE, and there were absolutely no other cars on the road, so if I fvcked up, it would have been only me that would have been killed/injured. It's not worth risking going more than 100 in the UK in my opinion.

Late at night on motorways, there's no compelling reason <not> to speed (assuming you know where the cameras are!) as there are so few people around...

You people are either crazy (and damn good) or lyers. Most 4-banger cars won't even accelerate past 120mph. My old 97 Camry would barely accelerate once it reached 90. It'd probably take me 10 minutes to get it from 100 to 140mph. That's provided I had enough highway space to do something like that.

The fastest I've ever gone was 100mph and at that speed the car is already pretty damn unstable. And I drive a sports car with sports suspension and tires.

Fastest I've ever personally driven was 110 in my truck on I-70 in MD near Frederick/Hagerstown area.

Fastest I've gone was in this guy's Corvette with the top down riding shotgun, speedometer hit 153 (digital readout) over a 1 mile stretch on a 45mph road through 4 traffic lights. Scared the living sht out of me, never been sucked back into a seat so fast/hard, we probably were doing around 140-145. Next time I ask for a ride home from this guy he felt the need to floor it in the rain in his Grand National... we were fishtailing like crazy and that was the last time I ever asked him for a ride home. He was a completely insane meathead, probably the craziest I've ever met.

105 briefly in my '92 Bonneville sometime last year, and that was quite fast enough for me. As I found out later, the computer limits it to 108 anyway.

I did 128mph in my 94 Mitsubishi Galant (before I sold it)........I was also underage and drunk because it was the day my sister got married and her new father-in-law kept pushing beer on me. He kept saying, "You're a college kid...you're supposed to know how to drink." So....after about 7 cups of nasty ice house I hit the road..... Luckily, I didn't get caught. I'll just never forget how stupid I was for getting behind the wheel.
