115 or 155 doesn't really matter because a wreck at either of these speeds is gonna result in the same outcome....death

Thats why you dont wreck. But you are def right. I went 170 on my ducati... a sub-400 lb bike.

PUCKER FACTOR! Sheeeiiiiit! I think I satisfied my need for speed though.

I thought 130mph for BMW 128i was rip off. 118mph???? A minivan can EASILY hit that number these days. Yes, I know it is because of the tire rating, but cannot they just offer an option or equip them with tires of a slightly better rating, for at least 130mph??

I just wanna get hot chicks. 115 is plenty fast enough.

i have a V6 and i love it dont get me wrong. but the one thing about the racing is i know that i cant shift in my camaro as fast as i can in my brothers 09 cobalt ss turbo. just because of the clutch. now im not sure about the V8 but if Chevy was serious about making the V8 a real muscle car i would hope they put in a different clutch

You say that like putting a higher performance clutch in a car is really all that difficult.

I have no problem speed shifting from 1st - 2nd.
2nd - 3rd isn't as smooth as I'd like.

Yes..yes i do its called the highway. don't even tell me that you have never pushed you car on the street.

Top speed is definitely not 115.....I only know because the other day I was going 118.
