I hate driving fast, but I had my old VW Jetta up to 130 once. Too fast for me, so I never did it again.

I've done about 180 on my friends GSXR 1000. I didn't even realize I was going that fast, lol. That thing is wicked fast. At redline it does 105mph in 1st gear.

I have driven my friend RX 7 at 130, my bro CBR600 at 135. I don't speed often anymore. Too many moose like to step out from behind trees.

That would be a tossup between my 1964 442 cutlass convertable and a 1979 Trans Am 6.6 with the oldsmobile 402. My Cutlass had a 330 small block that olds rated for the insurance indust 310 HP at 72 mph shift into drive ( 2speed powerglide) you would smack 100 at 3200 on the tack at at 5grand you was at 165mph As far as the T/A I could wrap the speedo back around to 40 which I think was 165. I was clocked in my 442 doing 165 . My uncle was cheif of police and hit me with his radar. ALL AMERICAN IRON AND AMERICAN MADE 100%!!!!!!!!!! Live here use what we build and save AN AMERICANS JOB

1968 GTX

I don't have an actual pic of the car, but it was similar to this drawing:


It had a 426 Hemi Crate Engine that was putting out somewhere in the neighborhood of 450hp, and 4.56 rear gears (if memory serves me correctly).

I didn't drive it very fast (It wasn't MY car) but it was definitely the fastest car I've been behind the wheel of...I wanted to open it up Sooooo badly, but I couldn't afford to fix it if I broke anything so better judgment prevailed...but just barely!

Later.
