Whats the fastest you EVER driven? are the camaro's speed limited? - Page 7 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

The speed limit, of course.

The better question to ask would be, how fast have you gone in town?!

HeavyRightFooT · 04-20-2009, 04:19 AM

260 and some, speedo indicated Kmh (+- 160mph) back when I used to live in the Netherlands. In my good old tricked out S2000. Used to go have fun on the Autobahn in closeby Germany the weekend

137 in a 95 impala ss and 120+ in a honda civic, i will never own another import, the impala was soooo smooth and had pleny more to go

I went 151 MPH on a Honda Blackbird, I went to 6th and the bike jumped to the rt. and scared the shit out of me. I don't want to do it again!!!

Most of you guys are f'n nuts!! In my New Yorker, on a nicely paved back road (near impossible to find in this town), the speedo read 105 the last time I looked, but was still climbing. Had to have got at least 110 before having to slow it back down.

Had my old Sunfire tached out at 100 going downhill (it had a crap motor). Wouldnt reach the full 120 because it only ran on 3 cylinders basically.

You guys that are in the 190's, and 200's, holy crap!! I think I'd be scared to hit those speeds on any streets.

fdjizm · 04-20-2009, 07:04 AM

i might have gone 150, not that i did, but i thought about it at one time, and really wouldnt try doing things like that, i want to stay alive a few more years...

Mine was on runway with a juiced up motorcyle. The Air Force had drag day for a car show.

On regular streets I go maybe 2-3 mph over the speed limit.

PYROLYSIS · 04-20-2009, 08:45 AM

I've driven my 2002 v6 camaro to 125 a couple times, but the car shakes too much at that speed to do it often. I've ridden with a friend driving an 02 Camaro SS when it reached 145. I'ts a lot scarier when someone else is driving. (I've also driven an ambulance 96 MPH, but I guess that was legal.)

Lee9710 · 04-20-2009, 08:47 AM

For me......140 in a 2005 Pontiac GTO before I traded it in.

ud_lose · 04-20-2009, 08:53 AM

125MPH Ford Crown Vic. ( W/O light bar )

BAMA 69 · 04-20-2009, 08:58 AM

160 In my 2002 Firehawk

Man i miss that car!:(

speedster · 04-20-2009, 09:16 AM

200+ mph on water. Not quite that fast on land.

Rogue Leader · 04-20-2009, 09:23 AM

On the road: 152 in my 89 Turbo Trans Am... at least thats what the officer clocked me at

On the track 170ish in a Barber Dodge race car drafting someone on the backstretch at Daytona! It was sick!
