Over 178 on the Yamaha R1 at Road Atlanta

Honda Accord ex 2002 130-mph then i past a cop and saw him turn on his lights so i pulled over and waited for him. It took him a minute or two and he pulled in behind me and gave me a nice ticket. He told me because i pulled over before he caught up to me that he would give me a brake. So he wrote it up as i was only doing 100 in a 70 and didn't take me to jail. Good thing I did not make him chase me it would have been much worse.

'76 Impala 2DR, 350 cid, 4 bbl. I went "M." The car hda an 85 MPH speedo, but it could be made to crank all the way around to the M in "MPH" at the bottom of the dial. Then it would just bounce.

Been over 100 a few times on a couple of sport bikes I have owned, but not for long as I don't really enjoy the sensation.

Got my xB to about 90 once.

I'm a real demon, huh?

Musta had a tail wind. Top speed is 184mph.

I managed 155 mph in my '68 Camaro. My son can claim Mach 1.8 in F-15.

+1 on that, in a Hugger Orange 99 Z28 though. It was so fast that the dots on the ....errr...track....were a contant buzz, and the CD was skipping...

112ish in a '66 lincoln continental on the turnpike, 20 yrs ago when I was 17/18yrs old. Older and wiser now and not concerned with the need for speed.
