so please don't kill me if this has already been done, but i couldn't find it, so figured i'd start it up.

what's the fastest you've ever driven, and in what vehicle? track and street. not to brag, just hey, figured it'd be neat for all of us car nuts to talk about some fun experiences.

mine would be 142 in a 96 LS400, around 12am on a tues driving from boca to miami on i95; had a bit of a slow day out in the sun :whistle:

154 - 94 Z28 Camaro GPS Verified

159 - 08 675 Daytona Unverified (But completely stock so it should be close)

I know where mostly everything else I've driven electronically limits. Like the other night, found the C230k at 137.

One of my short term goals is to do 2 bills verified, and to find out which of Ben's 2 cars.

Pulled the Camaro out for a night... thing looks great for being a damn antique.

Here's the video of the GPS log from an hour ago. :D
Make sure you watch it in HD/fullscreen so you can read the MPH numbers.
YouTube - Camaro Top Speed

I think it has more in it... wasn't even close to redline. I was running out of road quickly so I let out.

Anyone wanna help me hit 200?

190-192mph , and it got there fast...

Here it is at the end of the video, came from well behind then let off as soon as I trucked past him, way too scary at that speed but it was stable (is that an oxymoron?)..

2 wheels - KZ750 145mph
4 wheels - 997 GT3 164mph at Road America

However I can't count the number of times I went 150+mph last weekend at Roebling Road in my GT3. Top speed I saw was 157mph. If I could get out of turn 7 better I would have seen 160+mph! :D

As the driver...160 indicated in my M5 (no GPS and BMW speedo's lie)...At 150 I was passed by a certain members car like I was standing still!

As the passenger, I took a few laps in my uncles McLaren M8D at speed at Riverside Raceway way back in the day when I was 5 years old. He said we were well past 200.

I have a couple.

On my first Bike a 99' R6 on the way to MIR Dragway my digital speedo stopped at 160. So I guess I was close to 140ish. I used to get it to 126 in the quarter.

My second Bike was an 05' Busa. My buddy had a Garmin on his R1 and I saw my speedo say close to 200mph on one run we did. To show how bad the speedo's are at those high of speeds. When we stopped and looked at the Garmin it said 176mph as a top speed. So that is the fastest I've been.

In my car, 100 and let off. :bitenails:

185mph when my car only had 625hp or so.

as tblackj said earlier, too many things go through my head once i get past 140 (although i do try to get it up to that speed at least once, conditions permitting, when i take the car out.)

I've driven in the 140's a couple of times in a couple of different cars.

Here is a vid I took of a friend doing 161 in a Mallett CTS-V. Drag played such a huge part from 145 onward. The power it took to get to 161 felt like an eternity. We were pushing a brick through space but the car was VERY stable due to the Penske's. If we had more road (miles more) I'm sure it would of gone faster eventually.
