Damn me for thinkin' I was hip. Got my first 'nice' car 8/31/05, used '05 Base PPW bone stock. I'm havin' a BALL. 66 yrs young and 111 mph. Don't know if I'll push that. Hate speeding tickets. Had one in 1966. But I DO like to spin around town. Dat Z have some powah'.

145 in my Z and I am 21. But this was done on the fwy in the carpool lane with a passanger and lots of stuff in the trunk. Next time I will take her out on an oval and see what she can do. Fastest 1/4 mile was 13.5@104mph. You old guys are really awesome for taking your Z's up that high and at least you guys don't drive Buicks

I've had my Z up to 130 mph on a trip to Vegas (in Mojave Desert). My best time last night was 13.5, 105mph 1/4 mi. I've got to work on my launches.

Thats awsome man!!!!
Most guys on the site would think that a little over 100mph isnt much......
But I`ll tell you (This is comming from a young adult) 100mph is fast! Heck my fastest airplane lands at 85 mph and I find that fast for a small plane!
Best Wishes,
