150 - 99 cobra

Edit: 130 - 98 eclipse rs.. governor, thankfully no fuel-cutoff.. so could cruise there, but it wanted to go faster :(

270 k, not sure in mph, on a highly modified sport bike. Have done some drag racing in street/strip class, as well as modified drag sleds(snowmobiles) and motorcycles as well. Settling down as old age sets in ;) ...or not..... :lol:

145 in a 93 Toyota Camry. Still had throttle left, but got scared when I passed a car that was doing 70.

Somehow I have a feeling that some of these speeds are slightly exaggerated. :)

I've had my sentra up to 95, and it has room for more. I think its electronically governed at 110mph, so we'll se if we can get it up to that sometime.

You have a group of guys... on the internet... talking about how fast they've driven. That raises the probability of a lie to the 3rd power. :) Cars, internet, and speed.

If anything, I posted mine below speed, I just couldn't say how much faster it went (though not a lot faster).
The reason I say that is, my speedo toped out at 130. However, knowing it does 52mph. at 2,000rpm in fith gear, so at 6,000rpm I know its going three times as fast as does at 2,000rpm = 156mph. Also, the redline on that car is actually 6,200rpm, and I know I've had it a couple hundred rpm above that before.
So that just goes to prove that if anything I posted below my actual speed, in all honesty it was prolly closer to 160.

sounds like a party! ;)

I looked over at the speedometer in my friend's cobra and saw 150, don't know how fast we hit... hehe

You better hope you find alot of room. When it got to 125 it was crawling... I ran out of road at ALMOST 140 but a hill slowed me down to 135. So that was that. I bet your car could do the same since it weighs less. But I had a few mods on mine at the time.

That's kind of sad.. my eclipse RS did 130 pretty quick..

My 3000GT ran a 15.6 on my first and only run. If I tried it would have pulled a 15.3 possibly

clocked at 148 in a blown SBC 1967 biscayne 4 door. was great black primer on every thing but the doors and they were white so it looked an old cop car, 2 centrifigal blowers under the hood and steel wheels, none of the ricers knew what hit 'em till it was too late. [no lie my dad framed the ticket]

sold that one(minus motor) bought an 82 camaro dropped in the motor, got to about 135 before it got unstable(damn stock suspension)

sold it (again minus motor) bought 1948 Hudson Commodore currently being redone and prepaired for new drivetrain.

Only had my truck up to 95

it was late at night and I was drivin this really hot girl to my 'spot'! We were in my 81 280zx Turbo... she gave me a glance and I knew she wanted a little excitement... I mashed the the gas pedal to the floor with enough force to shatter concrete... as the fuel filled the cylinders and the turbo spooled with viggor, I watched the speedo raise at a brisk rate 90 -100 - 110 (I shifted to 4th) 120 - 130 I looked over and she had a look that would send any normal man to he's knees with pleasure, "faster" she said... 140 - 150 - 160 (shifted 5th) 170 as the tach reached for red lined I could hear a soft female voice calling my name, I looked over to see this little hottie in all her wonder for I knew she was near and as my head turn vibrations surged from the car and through my body... in that instant I wondered what could be wrong, rod? driveshaft? fuel? crank? and BAM! The answer was clear as my eyes opened to see my real life girlfriend shaking me and saying "get up it's time for work"


so in reality I guess my top speed is 140s on my 2001 honda cbr 600f4i
and my 81 280zx is sitting beside my house waiting for a turbo and still needs a paint job and full interior restore........ so I drive a 91 honda civic hb for now.

I still have a lot of good parts on my old 79' 280ZX, no turbo though. Just PM me if you need something, if I have the part, I'm sure we can work out a deal.
