2008 C6 - 160 hit some bumps and the car turned on active handling witch was kinda cool to have happen. It's fun to turn off traction control but leave on the active handling and try to do a donut it stops you so quick.

196mph in my 2000 Supercharged TransAm WS6. Speed Limiter was removed of course. The most exhilirating and at the same time the most scary moment. I was racing a Porche Carrera in California near Pleasanton.

I miss my WS6.

The c6 is really a sick car .... I was ramping up speed to 157 car was smooth as glass decided to slow down cause I was on a local hiway (which was wide open) all of a sudden here comes some local traffic..... passed them like they were going the other way, looked down was still doing 105+! couldnt believe it..after doing 157mpf 100 feels like 65!

Sorry, but you guys are insane. 100+ is scary as hell!

That said I went about 120 a couple times when I was 17 (I'm 34 now) and would NEVER do it again.
