Ya, that scared me quite a bit. My dad's quiet the aggressive driver. If he gets anything faster he'll kill us both....I swear, a few years back he wanted to get a Mustang GT, the mear thought of him driving the mustang the way he drives a tribute just scares me....JCE3000GTDriving 105mph in a Mazda Tribute/Ford Excape is suicide.I've done dealer trades in Escapes and they are scary in a crosswind and or over 85mph.

I've done about 130 km/h in my dads Mitsubishi Galant. It felt pretty fast, but when I read some of the speeds you guys have been up to, I feel like a wus. 
Oh well, at least I didn't break the law as much as some of you.

Dad was driving at 150kph when a scania ~10T body truck passed him, dual axel. He followed him for a bit but the truck was doing 170kph or so (1 way each way highway) so dad backed off a bit and let him go. It was a news paper delivery truck in the early hours of the morning. Crazy 
btw since dad made a few of these tips because of buisness he saw them fairly often. Always doing 160+.

If you're going to lie, at least make it plausible.

Hehe... I love living in a country where most speed limits (where there actually are posted limits... most roads don't have them) are implied rather than enforced.
About the only people who regularly get in trouble here are the Porsche club guys who insist on doing over 260 km/h on the highway.
130 km/h? That's how fast I take turns.
Last time I was on the North Expressway in my 85 hp passenger truck, we were doing 140 km/h (it's an exceptionally smooth and grippy road) and we had other equally pathetic trucks (drum brakes, no ABS, airbags or even crash structures) passing us... belching black smoke all the way.

Look at his name though Daan, wasace96, someone who got banned recently for ludicrous claims was called Ace96. Hmmm.

I was goindown 95 the other day...In my Grand-Am, disconnected the speedo, to stop the governor from kicking in at 108mph... topped 5th out at 6500rpm... since 3000rpm is 78, 65 in 5th should be about 169mph... not bad for a 4-banger with 150hp, eh?
GRAND-AMS RULE!!!

220 km/h with my dad in his '92 Subaru Legacy in Germany.
Yep, it's got a '98 Legacy engine
Otherwise, it would be the Ferrari F50 I sat in lapping at Spa (offcourse, it was not me driving the F50 but a pro racer
)
Somekind of festival at Spa every year 👍

Be happy that you got a ride in an F50!

I'm going to take issue with this as an exercise, the 150hp your claim would put you somewhere here:
According to the car connection about the 1999 150hp model:
Oh and by the way to completely discombobulate your post, you can unplug your "speedometer" all you want, the ECU for which the governor lies reads it's data from the engine/transmission and not from the instrument cluster. If this was a joke you didn't bother using a smilee to signify that.

mine's a 98 - and a manual - with a 6500rpm redline:JCE3000GT
JCE3000GTOh and by the way to completely discombobulate your post, you can unplug your "speedometer" all you want, the ECU for which the governor lies reads it's data from the engine/transmission and not from the instrument cluster.

Seems you missed about 4 variations of the wonderful QUAD-4 engine.
And if you disconnect the speedo cable, from the transaxle, guess what? your ECU has a default speed reading of ZERO.
please don't tell me about my car, tell me about car's I don't know everything about
and 10 points to Encyclopedia! he's the winner, and the only one who guessed it was a joke! it was on lap 72, following the other crash.
Oh raghaven:tdown: i hope that was a joke
