lol, that will come soon...maybe on my way back from Denver this Friday when I get my tune?
I hit 150 the other weekend when Gregrob and I were playing around a little bit but I didnt have my camera out. I will take video this next time though for sure lmao!
I wanna find a way to clock above 155 so I can see a little closer to what my top speed is lol

lol, I was talking about my speedometer. Mine goes to 155. I have no clue what I will be doing after that but I was pulling hard when I got to 150 still...I think I could break 170 if I wanted to...but no way to tell unless I can measure speed somehow other than my speedometer lmao!
I will go for gold when the time is right, I just dont wanna go for an orange jumpsuit and get my car crushed haha. My luck I would pass a trooper and end up in jail with my car next in line for the crusher at a salvage yard...

What gear do you have in the back? I think that an auto with 3.73 gears can only do about 155 until it hits the red line/rev limiter.

btw, most any GPS unit can tell ya your fastest speed...used to have a pic on my phone from my buddy's car, 164mph on the GPS...
and if yur goin 130mph you might as well go 150mph if all yur owrryin about is cops, cuz the cop isn't going to care when he pulls you over when he clocks you at 130, even if you do say "I could have gone 155"

verdy nice. back when i had my cobalt ss/sc, i had it up to 157(gps verified) on my way to tirerack in indiana. I do have to say it does get a little scary at that speed. In my Z i had it to 110 so far before i had to shut down.
