Default What is the TOP SPEED you have had your car to?

150mph before I had to slow down because of a cop. Got a ticket for going 85mph on a 65mph at 3 in the morning. Of course I gladly paid it, I would have hated paying a 150+ mph ticket on a 65mph. Of course anything over a 100 is technically grounds for arrest. So in my mind I got lucky.

Know I just leave it for the track where I regularly see 125+mph in the straights (before cam).
