125 mph on a short uphill straight on a mountain road where I had to shutdown or impale myself on a tree. 110 in the corners and I wasn't even pushing it hard.

143 , just to make sure that my tune did indeed remove the speed limiter after I had changed my tires

purely down to the size of the wheels that are on the car from the factory. The 1LT comes with 18" wheels stock.

Well, it surely wasn't maxxed out, I felt like it had more speed in it because it kept climbing, but going that fast kinda scared me for the first time, or made me nervous, so I let off the gas and slowed it down. I dunno, I guess if I was in a desert somewhere and it's just open road maybe I would kept going, but I dunno. Going that fast is scary.

I'm sure that everyone who is posting fairly high speeds only ever did so at the track.

Keep it safe!

100 in my Cobalt... just to see if it could go that fast. It had a bit more room to go but there were some cars about a half-mile away in front of me.


Hit the governor limit on my old GTP once... almost 140mph.


If this thread is still alive when I get my ZL1 I'll come back then.


In Ontario your car is impounded if you're caught doing ~30mph (50km/h) over the limit. So you have to be careful.
