Default Re: Fastest You\'ve Ever Driven

I'm somewhat shocked that mine is one of the fastest ones. I drove 150mph in my ex-girlfriend's 1996 Chevy Beretta in approximately 1997. It was on a rural, divided highway (State Highway 6 between Batesville and Oxford, Mississippi, if anyone knows the area) and at night. The ride was really smooth as silk, and I distinctly remember the sound of the wind whistling. It was great.

The weird thing is after you slow back down to 60mph after going that fast, you feel like you're barely moving.

(Disclaimer: The car only had 120 or so on the speedomoter, but the needle was past that and pointing directly down, so I'm not absolutely sure how fast we were going.)

115 in my Focus SVT going between Baltimore and Harrisburg. Since then I doubt I've taken it much over 85mph.

109 in a chevy cavalier. They were not made to go that fast. Did it in Omaha, coming home from high school on 144th betwn pacific and dodge for those that are familiar with Omaha. Not too long after, I was doing around 100 on the same road when some old lady pulled out of the post office and just stopped her car blocking both of the lanes going my direction. I veered off into the other direction's left hand turned lane, jumped the curb, and kept going. Lady still hadn't moved a couple of minutes later. I think she was scared out of her mind. So was I because I would have killed her no doubt. I've slowed down ever since, though I still like to drive faster than most.

130 in my camaro down a highway, but I generally enjoy going 90 when the cops aren't watching so
I probably did about 110 in my Charger but that is straight drag

also anyone going over 155 better explain how you bypassed the limiter

According to my camaro, 135. Problem was the speedometer jumped from 110 to 135 in about a second. So either that thing had some kind of secret afterburners.
