Fastest You've Ever Gone in Your Car?

West Side Ninja · Nov 18, 2004

Right under 130 in my '86 M635csi. That was with a ****ed up engine. I'll be getting it back soon and breaking that record in no time.

I may sound like a wussy here, but I've done 70 in my Hyundai Excel. The poor thing was shaking and the crosswinds were terrible. Nothing puts more confidence in you than a shaking steering wheel (really, it's the fastest I've gone, and I only have a learner's permit!) 135,000 miles on it and it still goes like a bat outta heck on the interstates (81 horsepower is enough for me).

I don't see you being a "wussy", some cars just arn't built for speed, and they can be just as scary at 80mph as other cars are at 170. :sly:

137 MPH in a 92 Subaru SVX... I was chasing down some guy in a new Impala

This was on a back farm road... so... like barely 2 lanes... it was fun..

TB · Nov 21, 2004

'97 Neon with a blown cord in the left front - 110mph

'99 Grand Prix - 120mph and smooth as silk...

My brothers '69 Chevelle - No idea. I was too young to care and too busy laughing to look at the speedo. My dad and brother pulled out the 350 and slid in a bored 396. Damn nice car, 'till he sold it. :guilty:

Nasadus · Nov 21, 2004

I recently did 205 km/h on the highway near here,that would be around 125 mph if i'm correct.8500 rpm but still not near the redline.Will have to try harder next time :sly:

.I read on various car forums that the car can do 150 mph.

Azuremen · Nov 21, 2004

I noticed the post on using econoboxes for speed....

110 MPH (Thats the max on the speedo anyhow) in a 94 Toyota Tercel 4 speed. It felt like it was gonna just have bolts popping off and everything... it was more distressing than the SVX... thats for certain...

pegaso650 · Nov 21, 2004

135mph on porsche 944 while chasing an audi TT

Vinaashak · Nov 22, 2004

Fastest ive driven is 138 in my 98 Grand Prix. I know it has more in it because i had to slow down for a exit. It was still pulling fairly well at that speed.

Here is a video getting up to 131. I have Heads Up display so thats how i know the speed in case you were wondering.

NIAL8U · Nov 26, 2004

the fastest iv ever drivin was in an R33 GTR with an RB28DETT(2.8 Twin Turbo) it was a mates who was on the turps, we clocked 276km/h on the electronic speedo the fastest iv ever been in a car was in a 99 Christmas Edition Supra riding shotgun up to 308km/h, i was so F`n freaked, but we did it again, i found that i clenched my legs too much and they started to hurt, as for the driver, I think he was more freaked then I was.

pimp racer · Nov 27, 2004

WHOA BABY JUST YESTERDAY MY BROTHER BROKE HIS OLD RECORD OF 110 MPH to his new record 125 MPH! He could have gone to at least 140 but I told him to floor it when we got about 1/4 of the way down the long straight. Oh and there are no drivers on this road usually! and I have never seen a cop on that road either! Oh and my brother's car is a STOCK 2004 Honda Accord EX V6.

GTrackd02 · Nov 28, 2004

no really I mean if it can go 120 MPH then thats nothing to laugh at.

McLaren · Nov 28, 2004

Its not the speed, its the car itself. Its almost 15 years old.
I'd rather not for, like I said, personal reasons.

DVS FOG HORN · Nov 28, 2004

I was "paced" by a cop doing 120ish in a 92' Hyundai Sonata with a modded 91' Eclipse turbo motor! (no ticket, undercover never "identified" himself, was entrapment!)

130+ in my 90 GLI

140+ in a 93' 300 twin turbo (huge pucker factor)

140+ on a 98' TL1000R :scared:

130+ on a 00' R1 (never again! :scared:

)

120+ on a 98' Buell (Buell test ride at a HD open house!)

120+ (alot) in my GTI (ask boom!)

I use "+" becaus I dont think factory speedos are right after 100 . . .

Yeah, but they are wrong the other way. If it was indicating 120 you were almost certainly doing less than that. In the UK, it's 10% that speedos are allowed to be out by. So 120 could be as low as 108.

The older the better! No pressure here though man. :lol:

80 in my caravelle not that fast but it wont do anymore

neanderthal · Nov 28, 2004

some manufactureres are more "off" than others. a good number of them are about 5-6% off.
regulations here also state that the speedo can read up to 10% over.

Norris · Dec 7, 2004

ive done 174 in a 644 hp supra went for a bit of a raz! very crazy next day he crashed and mashed the engine!!

PublicSecrecy · Dec 7, 2004

holy ****. I went about 115 in some Saab. Early '90's. Damn that thing could go, especially for one as heavy as it. The guy who owned it also owned a BMW body shop in Vancouver and worked on Mathew Good and some other ppl's cars too, (i have Matt Good's mountain bike!) so its more than likely that he did somehting to the engine (in the Saab). He probably would've gone faster had I not been 13 when he did it. On route to Toronto tho i saw a CRB1000 go flying past us fast as hell. He was easily doin 150. Damn thats fast. Comming back from Toronto one day I saw some guy going north at like 130 in a Maserati.

initialdrift · Mar 16, 2005

Emohawk · Mar 16, 2005

~185 km/h -> ~115 mph.
That was still in the powerband, so I think I could get to maybe 210. Not untill I have new tires though

Also topped out my old car at 140.

Thirdeye · Mar 17, 2005

I've never done over 80.
