WOW.

I hit 110 on my dirtbike, and that was scary fast. I woulda kept going, of course, but ran out of gear. I've never ridden a streetbike, i'm sure they're better than knobbies on the road. no more hijacking.

135 mph before I let off, had a lot left too go if I would had the nerve, but country roads with sways and ruts kinda don't mix with high speed.

135 with the T tops off and stuff I had in the back sounded like it was gonna come flying out so I let off. Haven't tried again. The section of road I was on was a short connector piece of expressway with little traffic. Now the rest of it has been completed so I don't dare go that fast on there anymore. I wish I had a good safe place to open it up.

In the SS i've only hit 125 and that was a few days ago. The 69 hasn't been over 105 with the LT1/T56 combo but before this setup (in my even younger and more stupid years) i've gone 145 in it and that was constant for quite some distance...

Not in my fbod but I did 190 on my hayabusa down I-55 one night. After I get my car back and a few mods I have every intention of eclipsing the 200+mph mark with my trans am. 1000+fwhp, 6 speed, and 3.23 rear, lowered, weight reduction, etc.

Around 120 ish top speed isn't my thing its how fast I get there I've done faster in my hatch 134 and out of gearing

If I had place that it was safe I'd see how fast it goes but I don't feel good doing insane speeds on open roads, not to preach just my own thoughts.

I was amazed at how fast this car climbs up there. I hit 135 from 60 in an instant racing a stang. He had the jump on me and I killed him.
