What's the fastest mph you went?

[JulesMaximus]

140mph.

 

[Muadib]

155 on my bike, about 140 in my old z28. I had my gf mothers mini van over 100. It had room for more, but I didn't want to press my luck.

 

[Twista]

60-65mph (permit driver )

 

[Schadenfroh]

90

 

[neonerd]

23......my bike won't go any faster

EDIT: this isn't on a highway, lol

 

[MaxDepth]

I topped out my Mazda B2300 truck (4cyl) at the 85 mph mark. I had to roll dwon the window and ask the car beside me how fast was I going (94 mph).



Actually the fastest was 155 mph in a 1970 Jensen Interceptor (British) on West I-64 in Kentucky. I might have gone faster except that I ran out of straight highway.

i went 110 mph briefly

kid, don't try this at home!

Yes, I went 110 briefly on highway 15 between Maryland and Rochester, NY. It was empty and most cars were doing 90, so I passed them....anyway, I usually drive 5-10 over the speed limit if the road is free...otherwise, I go the speed limit.

145 on my Bike
110 in my ford Focus.

Both were just curiousity on what the speed felt like. The speed was deceptive on my bike, but I felt it in the Focus. I think the focus is limited at 115 anyway.

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.

Hate to break it to you, but ya don't drive a sports car if it's unstable at 100mph.

LOL. It's not the number of cylinders. Gearing and aerodynamics make a large impact, power has a smaller role. I have been over 120 in a "4 cylinder".

Also, he is right about your car not being a sports car. That, or it's broken.

 

[Cuda1447]

110 in a 55mph zone.

 

[Zenmervolt]

Since the statute of limitations has to be expired by now, 115 in a 1988 Honda Accord LX-i. Back, back, back, back country road. I think that if I had really pushed the car had maybe another 5mph in it, but the car was already 10 or 11 years old when I did that and it was plenty scary at 115. Had more road, ran out of guts. Probably a good thing.

Since then, I've hit 95 or so in the Mark VIII on some deserted sections of freeway in Montana and the Dakotas during cross-country trips. The Mark takes it a little better than the old Accord did.

130mph at 2:30am in my moms g35.

I have a 4cyl and I can DEFINITELY do better than 120 AND it's completely stable ('04 Cooper S). In fact, it is rock solid at 133 (my new best). One word of warning though.....do NOT open the moonroof at 133mph in a MINI .

[Viperoni]

120mph, still pulling well and it bounced off the governor. When I get my car dyno'd, I'm gonna see if they have a max speed test

 

[AmericasTeam]

125 in a Hertz rental 04 Mustang, with the top down, on Highway 8 outside of Holtville, Ca
140 in a 1970 Nova racing a Mustang on I280 outside of Redwood City, CA.

I call BS. (unless you mean he brushed against a small branch hanging down over the road)

That's 9 times as severe of an impact as 45 mph... and you're lucky to walk away from 45 without a scratch.

I hit a tree going about that fast and didn't get a scratch on me, aside from a very small little pockmark where a flying piece of windshield hit my forehead and a stiff neck which lasted a couple of days. I attribute it to dumb luck, having been wearing a seatbelt, and going into the tree backwards. Maybe not likely, but certainly possible. This was in a '96 Integra, fwiw.

Well I know a guy that smashed in to a thick ass tree at about 60mph or so. Car had a big dent right in it. Write off. 3 passengers were fine. No air bag in the car. They were wearing seat belts. Crazy yes but I think hitting a tree at 115mph is A LOT different.

Fastest I have gone was 110mph in my Mazda 323F. 1.6l and it would go some for what it was. That 110mph was on a slight down hill also. Normal was 105mph on the flat.

The Toyota Yaris 1l (lol mums car) would top out at 100mph.

The speeds are what the speedo would say so if it was slowly and that is probable at these speeds or higher?

[Engelphat]

i did 115, right buy a cop going the other way...big mistake...so lucky...he didn't turn around

 

[acemcmac]

165... oh and

[yhelothar]

135 on my 92' corolla...
the needle was pointing STRAIGHT DOWN!!!
the speedometer only goes up to 110mph too!
I wasn't redlined yet, and my car was still accelerating at a pretty constant speed, but there were cars ahead, so I was forced to slow down.

 

[NinjaGnome]

135 in my firebird.

 

[BullyCanadian]

about 245km/h in my uncles benz so roughly 153.1mph
