I just got home from burrying the speedo at 140mph on 66. I was wondering how fast you guys have gotten to?

 

110. Yes I know I am a major bad ***

 

130mph, still had more in it.

 

145mph in my IROC,120 in my lincoln,155 with the top down in my friends 93' vette..that's a ride. And i'll hopefully match the 145 in my IROC with my SHO when i get it on the road. 7000+ RPM redline is a nice thing.

 

I've buried my 140MPH speedo also....once. Then i decided it would be the last time

 

115 mph w/ 2:73s.

 

140 & more pedal left

 

I need to invest in some aftermarket guages. Maybe a 180mph speedo. The thing about getting to 140 was the car shifted into overdrive, and i didn't want to take my hands off the wheel. So, when i was getting up near 140, I was getting back into my power band so it actually started accelerating faster than it was around 125. If I would have left it in drive, i could have gotten to 140 in much less time.

 

100mph with about 1500rpm left in third gear. I know, I am a big wuss.

 

:rockon: 110

 

Had the bird at around 100, but with the 85 mph speedo, who can tell. I had the 85 pegged for a few seconds, and that car pulled like it had no force against it. I knew I was going to fast when my father told me to slow down.

Had the camaro speedo over to the 10 km part on the 85 mph/ kph speedo. On snow tires. Experiment I would never do again. And it took a long time to get there too.

 

I've had the firebird upto at least 100 m.p.h.,It's hard to tell with the 85m.p.h. speedo,110 in the Grand Prix,90 in my wifes Transport van.

 

In my '97 SS:

140 3 times
135 6 times

none since....I finally grew up.

I would consider doing it again once my Formula is completed (probably in a month), since I've never taken the Formula faster than 115. But I know I shouldn't.

 

"96? I didn't know this rig could go that fast, the speedometer only goes up to 85!"
