Not sure if this is the right board but, How fast have you all got your cars to go. Talking top end speed not quickest car.

I got mine up to 121 but could have gone further but got freaked out when i saw the Ford Tauras coming at me in the other lane. Thought it was a cop but of course it wasn't. I haven't pushed her much over 110 since then.

I know other cars will go faster, but as for the 2.8 V6 I've gotten it up to about 125. That's an assumption considering the Speedometer only goes to 120. I was going to push it farther but My Radar Detector went off, so I stoped. I never saw any cops, but I still haven't had the nerve to try since.

I've had my 85 trans am (5.0 HO) up to around 140-145 (using rpm, gear ratio, rear ratio and tire diameter).
My 92 Z28 (5.7 TPI) has hit 140 with pedal still left.

you can go straight to jail if you exceed the limit too much in Texas...
doubling the limit is instant-arrest here...
like accidentally going 40 in a 20...
