Now I'm a bit older and hopefully wiser. I've lost several freinds over the years to accidents and now some friends kids are getting f'd up or dead... It's hard to find enough open road to even think about these speeds without endangering someone. Maybe I'll try to find the top end on a track someday but, certainly not on the California highways.
What about I-15 between Barstow and Vegas? The last time that I rode it on my motorcycle it was empty and you could run full out without cops or traffic. I brought the bike up to 145 and backed out of it because of all of my traveling gear being bungeed to the bike.

Well since you didn't say what we where in/or driving.

33 mph on a mountain bike riding in the mountains downhill (WAY SCARY)
135 on the back of a Motorcycle (NEVER AGAIN!!)
130+ (speedo maxed out) in my 78 Z
120 in my 98 SS
170 mph when I was shot off a carrier in a 2 seater F-18
about 700 mph in the same F-18 (NEVER EVER AGAIN!!)

I got mine to 135 and I guess there was a little wind and my car was shifting in the lane like crazy so I backed it off. Scary
