Highest speed in signature. Not my top speed, but it's the best I could do in the standing mile.

I've always wanted to try a standing mile race like that. Do they make you have a cage in your car for that?

141 bone stock against another Pewter TA WS6 (same tint and wheels as mine), it was bad *** cause it was like I was racing myself hahahaha anyways, very dangerous speed if you include the fact that I was on a 1/2 mile stretch of road with a busy intersection at each end but no one got hurt still very stupid

Pft, go fix your tail lense.

LMAO! AWESOME! I remember an article in which they did a standing mile competition in an 02 magazine. The viper only hit like 16X IIRC. AWESOME!

just over 100 on a stretch of highway. Big rush when you you floor it past any recognition of the speed limit but really not worth doing too often.

158-160, unsure, because the speedo is hard to read past 155. '93 M6 Z-28 catback, K&N. homemade style under bumper scoop and dryer hose ram air. Ran this same speed 10-15 times, always on deserted TN Highway, ran out of road, car was still pulling. Did it both with 2.73 gear, and 3.42 gear.
